Ahmad Al-Obaidy IRAQI open sourcer

Today I've discovered something that can keep me single for at least extra 3 years, "cooking rice in microwave". It is like magic. You can have a tasty rice in couple of minutes and using only one dish to avoid the messy clean-up.

What brought this up, is that I have a saucepan of QEEMA but with no rice. So, after little dig a friend advised this recipe.

1. Select a deep microwave dish with a cover.
2. Get the ratio right. The ratio is what's important: 1 unit rice, 2 units water. For example: 1/2 cup of rice, add 1 cup of cold water; 1 cup of rice, add 2 cups of cold water.
3. Place in the microwave on maximum heat (i.e., 900 Watts) for 10 minutes without the lid.
4. Then stir, cover with the lid and place in the microwave for an additional 3 minutes until all water is absorbed.
5. Remove from microwave and let stand a few minutes before fluffing with a fork.
6. You can add salt or butter before cooking if you wish, or cook the rice in chicken or other stock instead of water.

Today I gave it a try, and it was very yamee, so you can try it too.
