Hi friends. i have been using Tilda American long grain rice for a very long time but they stopped the production. the other long grain rice i am using is rather disgusting......i can't always cook basmati rice which is good only in byriani. now i am switching to sona masoori rice, this will be the very first time i will be cooking and taste it. my question is for one cup of rice how many cup of water? I am using electric rice cooker. thank u. take care.
If u r going to have the rice with kuzhambu (sambar,rasam etc) 3 cup water,if the rice is for variety rice,add 21/2 cup of water.
Hi thank u for answering.....I put 12 cups of water for 4 cups of rice but it was waterybonkbonkbonk. I will put less. bye
Hi thank u for the answer........as i was saying earlier.. 12 cups of water for 4 cups of rice was too much. I tried 6 /2 for 3 cups of rice.... still watery. I think i will put 6 cups of water. i hope it will be great. bye
If you are using a electric rice cooker use a little less than 2 cups of water for a cup of rice. Rice cookers tend to make rice a little gummy. I cook my rice in the microwave. I use 2 cups of wate to a cup of rice and cook it in a cornig ware at high for 20 mins. The time may vary depending on the power of your microwave. DO not close the pot while cooking and use a large pot so that it will not spill over. Add a tsp of oil and some salt to the rice. Let me know how you like it. I have been doing this of years now.
