| 1. Put the water to boil in a pot on the stove-top. | 2. Once it starts boiling rapidly, lower flame and add the drained rice to it. | 3. Mix once and then increase the flame. | 4. Bring to a boil. | 5. Once it comes to a boil, lower flame and allow it to cook, uncovered, until all the water has been absorbed by the rice. | 6. Remove from heat. | 7. Fluff the rice with a fork or a spoon. | 8. Now, carefully transfer the cooked rice to a rice strainer. | 9. Mix once with a spoon or fork. | 10. Open the cold water faucet in your kitchen sink. | 11. Place the cooked rice that's in the strainer under the cold water faucet. | 12. Let the cold water wash over every single grain of rice. | 13. Keep mixing the rice grains as the water gushes over them. | 14. Once you have given the rice grains a"cold water bath"{as I call it}, and drained out as much water as possible from the rice through the rice strainer, transfer the rice to a large plate. | 15. Now, spread the grains as much as possible from each other in the plate. | 16. Put the plate in your microwave oven. | 17. Microwave for 10 minutes. | 18. Dont adjust the power setting to Hi or Low or Medium Hi or Medium Low. | 19. Don't bother about that. | 20. Just microwave the rice, uncovered, for exactly 10 minutes. | 21. Do not mix the rice in these 10 minutes. | 22. Do not disturb it. | 23. Let the RICE GODDESS WORK HER MAGIC on every single grain. | 24. Once 10 minutes are up, let the rice sit for 2 minutes before you open the microwave and take out the cooked rice. | 25. Mix well and serve it right off the plate. | 26. If its not gone in 30 seconds, I'll change my name! | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
