How to Make Rice in a Frying Pan

A long time ago when I was living on my own, I never really ate rice so I didn't own a rice cooker. It wasn't a problem, but when I started living with my boyfriend, he kept badgering me because he wanted to have rice.
My mother told me that rice can be cooked in a frying pan, so she taught me how and when I tried making it, it was really easy. My boyfriend thinks cooking it this way is better than when it's cooked in a rice cooker.
My co-workers are always surprised by how I make rice, which is why I decided to upload the steps.
The cooking time is approximate, so the amounts and cooking temperature may vary. Peek at the rice. If the liquid has evaporated and the rice is plump, it's done. Since there isn't a lot of rice, it will probably burn easily. I usually use 3 rice cups and cook for around 5 minutes on low heat. Recipe by saki1010

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash and soak the rice as usual and then add it to a frying pan. Pour about 5mm-1cm of water over the rice. Cover with a lid and turn the heat to high. Once it comes to a boil, lower the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes.

Here's how it looks after 5 minutes. Once the rice has become plump, turn the heat to high until the frying pan begins to sizzle. Stop the heat and let it steam for 10 minutes.

Stir it up to evaporate the remaining liquid and enjoy.

By the way, it doesn't retain heat very well, so pack it into a container with the steam while still hot. Once it has cooled, store in the freezer.

By the way, you can make a very nice poached egg if you cover an egg with plastic wrap and add to the pot as the rice is steaming for 10 minutes. Please try it out if you want!

How to cook rice in frying pan How to cook rice in frying pan
Sometimes I get lazy to cook in the rice cooker and sometimes I need the rice to be cooked in less than 20min. I used a frying pan you can also use a pot as well. If you don’t have a cover to steam up the rice, well you’re in the right place. If you like a little sembei (Japanese rice cracker)style a little crunch yumm you’re in the right place again! CaRiNe -
How to Cook Delicious Rice in a Saucepan How to Cook Delicious Rice in a Saucepan
My rice cooker can only cook from 300 g to 1.5 kg of rice. However, if I use a saucepan, I can cook less than 300 g of rice whenever.When you rinse the rice, be gentle. If you rinse roughly, the rice grains will break and the texture won't be pleasant when eating. After rinsing, drain well.If the saucepan lid clatters while cooking, place a large bowl on top of the lid to secure. Recipe by Wnaow. cookpad.japan -

Cooking Rice in a Pot Without it Boiling Over Cooking Rice in a Pot Without it Boiling Over
I've lived in Europe for 14 years, and it's been 10 years since I started cooking rice on the stove. At some point, I settled on this cooking method. It's really convenient. I use a different recipe for cooking rice in a Le Creuset pot. When the Le Creuset method feels like too much trouble, I cook my rice following this recipe.1 rice cooker cup = 180 ml. This recipe works for up to 3 rice cooker cups’ worth of rice. If making sushi rice, reduce the water level by 2-3 mm and cook. You can add in a bit of extra water or leave it to steam for 12 minutes, adjust the recipe to suit your preferences. As of late, I always add a little extra water when cooking my rice.
