Achieving the perfect consistency for steamed jasmine rice is a fundamental skill for any home cook. This low-sugar side dish relies on a simple absorption method, resulting in distinct, fragrant grains that are light and fluffy rather than sticky. By thoroughly rinsing the rice to remove excess starch and allowing it to rest after cooking, you ensure a professional finish that rivals any quality restaurant.
This versatile recipe is an essential accompaniment to a wide variety of aromatic Thai curries, savoury stir-fries, or grilled fish. As a naturally low-sugar carbohydrate, it provides a clean, neutral base that allows the complex flavours of your main course to shine. Whether you are hosting a dinner party or preparing a quick midweek meal, this reliable technique guarantees consistent results every time.

Ingredients for Perfect Steamed Rice
725ml Thai jasmine rice (450g 140g )
900ml water
How to make Perfect Steamed Rice
Rinse rice in several changes of cold water until water is clear, then drain well in a large fine-mesh sieve. Bring rice and water (900ml ) to a boil in a 4-quart wide heavy pot and boil, uncovered, without stirring, until steam holes appear in rice and grains on surface look dry, 5 to 7 minutes. Reduce heat to very low, then cover pot with a tight-fitting lid and simmer 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 5 minutes. Gently fluff rice with a fork.
