Notes
- Ignore the rations on the packet of rice and follow the instructions in this recipe.
- Make sure you seal the rice with foil tightly. This makes sure the steam doesn't escape and the rice cooks properly. Don't forget to fluff up the rice before serving. It lets all the steam out and stops it from over cooking.
- Do not be tempted to take the foil off to look at or stir the rice. It doesn't need it and it will mean the steam escapes and the rice won't cook as well.
- Be careful when taking the foil off the dish as a lot of steam will escape.
- Make sure you add the butter and salt to the boiling water first, as this will let the butter melt in the water.
