Dis one go helep remove any dusty starch wey fit dey on top the rice so e no go dey gum together when e dey cook. Put 1 cup (195 g) medium- or long-grain white rice for inside strainer, and rinse am under cold running water. Rinsing the rice no dey always necessary. Some rice fit get more starch on top am pass others, though, so you fit just dey do am every time wey you wan boil rice. Add 2 cups (470 ml) of water to small saucepan, and put am for stove for medium-high to high heat. Allow the water make e heat until e begin boil well well. When you dey make white rice, use 1:2 ratio for the rice and water. Dis one mean say for every 1 cup of rice wey you wan make, use 2 cups of water. As e dey cook, rice dey expand so e dey important make you use pan wey big well well for the amount wey you dey make. In general, 2-quart (2.5 L) pan dey big well well for 1 to 2 cups of uncooked rice. Once the water begin boil, add the rice and ½ teaspoon of (2.84 g) salt and stir gently. Allow the pot make e begin simmer gently. You fit also add 1 tablespoon (14 g) of butter or oil to give the rice flavor and make e no dey gum together as e dey cook. After the pot don begin simmer, turn the burner’s heat down to low, and cover the pot with the lid. Allow the rice make e cook for approximately 18 minutes. At that point, start dey check the texture. When the rice don finish, e go dey firm but e no go dey crunchy. You wan make e tender, so e dey okay if e dey somehow sticky. However, make sure say you no cook am too long make e no dey gum. Don’t open the pot before the 18 minute mark. E dey help trap steam wey dey aid in the cooking process, so if you remove the lid, e fit take longer for the rice make e finish. If you no get lid for your pot, use foil cover am while the rice dey cook. Just make sure say you cinch the foil around the edges so the steam no go fit escape. If water still dey inside the pot when the rice don finish cook, you suppose drain am. Just tilt am over the sink make the excess water fit drip out. Once the rice don finish cook, turn off the heat but leave the rice for inside the pot with the lid on. Make e sit and steam for another 5 minutes make e finish the cooking process. Just before you dey ready to serve, take the lid off the pot and use fork or spoon comb through the rice and fluff am. Transfer the rice go bowl or individual plates and serve. E good make you allow the rice make e sit for another 2 to 3 minutes after fluffing before you serve am. Dis one go give am small time make e dry small so e no go too wet and sticky when you serve am.```
