Easy White Rice in Microwave

[sunrisegazing]

Wow, I searched and found this video after burning my rice and melt myTupperware rice cooker cause I didn't use enough water. Just tried your technique, very simple and the rice came out beautifully. Never have to scrub a burned pot again. Thanks.

[TwilightFalls]

Never again will I dirty a pot whilst cooking rice on the hob... thanks :)

[penguinpiebizzle]

:3 hungry

[AsiaLoverPrincess]

Wah ~~ I knew u could cook rice with micrawave but ...I didnt know it'll turn out so pretty lol

[MissIdalea]

My microwave isn't like this :( how do I use it in a regular one? *Cant put how many wats I want*

[MyTechtime]

@MissIdalea use power level. for example I have a 1000 watt one, if i want 500 watts i put on half power.

[Freekiellie]

DAMN! I was expecting the microwave to explode. Ahh well. Btw, good video XD

[GarirS]

thanks man ! im gonna try this now

:D

[GarirS]

thanks man !  :D

[xXGothicNekoxX]

[MinyKitty80]

can i make rice balls with this meathod? OxO

[bestfeetlover]

Additionally add one or two pieces of cinnamon.......

[MrJetlagfever]

handy , thanks

[emmarie1]

Thank you for sharing this. All these crazy people. If they didn't want to make rice in a microwave, what are they doing here. We've had a microwave rice cooker for as long as I can remember. It's a plastic pot with two lids that lock down to steam the rice. $5-10. It's so much easier than cooking on the stove, which I have a tendency to forget about and let burn. Others may not have this problem, but I love the fact that you push a couple of buttons and can concentrate on the rest of the meal.

[ToaDarxx]

does it work for onigiri or rice balls?*same thing*

[techiedkb]

I used the same recipe as you mentioned and the rice came out perfect! Thanks for sharing!

[neonboy9495]

Thanks for the video, I'm working on making homemade riceballs and I don't have a rice cooker

[BarbaraMParis]

Very nice video, I needed to know how to do this today

[ZENiiXHD]

i did this without watching the vid it turned out great lol and without the oil just rice and water :)

[Maxinter100]

do you need to add salt to the rice

[silentfades]

THANK YOU a really nice job by a nice guy

[smiletogreet]

my godness ! too much bullshit ! complete idiot ! Rice cooker not easy one ? waste time and electricity if 14 min in microve !

[billobo]

@smiletogreet Or you can avoid the expense of buying a rice cooker and do it this way.

[Chandraamukhi]

@billobo

OR you can cook the rice in a pot XD

it doesnt take as much time and its also simple and the rice gets fluffy and tasty ^^

well i guess it depends on the cook if the rice gets fluffy&tasty or not XD

anyway.. its also a good idea

[chawlamohali]

@smiletogreet pal, microwave consumes less electricity

1.compare rated wattage

2.microwave turns on-off-on itself. you'll hear clicking sounds

give it a try..

[swiftverbicide]

@smiletogreet How broke are you to complain about 14 minutes of microwaving.. Maybe he doesn't wanna buy a rice cooker.. Maybe he only cooks rice once in awhile

[chemao1978]

@smiletogreet The cost is not really that much. Running a microwave full power for an hour may cost you about 10 bucks. That said, for 15 minutes you're talking about $2.50. When you compare that to $80 up to $200 for a rice cooker, it's not really expensive at all. Then, take into account that when you cook rice in the microwave, you don't need to use full power -- it's more like a wash, or even cheaper. What's easier about it? Nothing! It doesn't save money, and they're a bitch to clean.

[amoctez2]

@chemao1978 The average electricity cost in the US is about 10 cents / kWh. at 900W, you spend 9 cents per hour, or about 3 cents to make the rice.

[blurfist]

@smiletogreet komplete moron you are.

[SimisterrProductions]

@smiletogreet damn chill

[Tinysju]

i know! now im a great asset for the lady...

[inexplicable92]

@CurtisShadyAMG same situation right now hahaa

[imtomodly1234]

i like to keep the rice water yum rice soup

[evanbrownstone]

Any oil? Can I use motor oil? of course not used motor oil, but like, maybe some fresh motor oil from the can?

[Lamontlee07]

Nice :)

You can also add butter in place of the oil. I tried and it was superb ;)

[billobo]

@dickdog1 I am confused by your comment because you do see my face in this video towards the end. Did you not watch till the end? That might explain your comment.

Also, I figured people looking for white rice on Youtube would probably want to see how the rice is made rather than me talking.

[Lodatzor]

@billobo

You are quite correct, sir. Thank you for uploading. :)

[inexplicable92]

@dickdog1 you're an idiot

[YML0VE]

@dickdog1 who the heck cares? i guess your username describes the kind of person you are.

[inexplicable92]

@dickdog1 Are you retarded?

[TheBill2468]

oil does not mix with water. It just floats to the top.

[BlackTalon53]

you never boil rice in salt water, the rice will always remain a little bit hard inside. Has to do with osmosis through the cell membranes. Salt it after cooking.

[VidelRogue]

What type of rice? There are several kinds.

[JustMiyabi]

Thanks for sharing this video! I am linking this video to my video"How to make riceball"　＾－＾　This your video will help my friends to make rice easily! ＾０＾

[TheRahool2]

for how much people is this reciepe for

[BTUvsCAL]

12 min works great

[musicaman68]

Looks like mash potatoes.

[p4kiprincess]

takes 12 mins to cook on stove?

even less?!?!

[sakadafreak]

@p4kiprincess but there's more things to wash then

[CapijuanHarlock99]

Thank you very much. I can get married now XD

[azgrem]

I'm going to try this now! Thanks! I always use my rice cooker but it just takes so long...

[elementswrath]

this is GREAT!!

[Atma01]

Cooking oil? Are you sure mate? I thought oil is highly flammable. Wouldn't putting it into the microwave be a bit risky?

[jdmaloney]

Thank you, Billobo. This is just what I wanted. No rice cooker needed and fewer steps than other microwave instructions I've seen.

[Circledbreadstick]

Hahaha I love indian people, Its so stereotypical how an indian guy is showing you the secrets of cooking rice.

[samforensic]

wow, i just tried it and it tastes same as in a rice cooker..actually a bit better cos i usually have this layer of burnt rice at the bottow on the bowl in the rice cooker....with the microwave it was perfect...thanks a million!

[thereefour777]

XD THX!

[inkey2]

to curtisshadyAMG: another easy thing to make till your parents get home is "Spagetti". Real EASY....get some water boiling in a pan throw in the spagetti for 15 minutes, drain the water off, put on a plate....oh yes....buy a jar of spagetti sauce and pour over it. Cooking is something every young person should learn over time.

[inkey2]

TRY THIS its GOOD.....after the rice is made....un-shell about 10 pistachio nuts....put them in a little cheapo coffee grinder and grind them for about 10 seconds til almost powdery. Sprinkle the powder on the rice and mix in well.....DELISCIOUS !!!!!!!

[loplover]

excellent - many thanks!!!

[Birdona]

i think it was done really well, and those who prefer rice cooker why don't u stop bothering yourslef with leaving nasty comments? go and enjoy your rice cooker.I bought a microwave instead! Billobo, Bravo!

[hochentis]

why is there a need to put 1 teaspoon of oil in the rice

[billobo]

So that the rice doesn't stick to the bowl.

[danrocks242]

thanks so much my mum needed to know. lol

[ashes2flames]

You should try 4-5 minutes full power, quick stir, then 10-15 minutes at half power (depending on microwave) .. makes a big difference.

[coolpraks]

very nice dude nice basmati chaval in 14 mins mMmMmMmMm i hope the chavalis cooked properly tho not kachha imma try it in a bit =]

[wilchesE]

lol right now i wasted all my money on furniture and school so i defenitely found what i was looking for lol. Its rice for me until next payday yay!! i hate college for that

[gawshurface7924]

What do you know about white rice. You have to use a rice cooker.

[billobo]

This is a video for all those who do not have a rice cooker.

[UozaWahine]

I don't see any "pluffiness" in your microwaved rice. All I can see is just a "MUSHY" kind. If you don't have a rice cooker, you can still cook it in an old way, using an ordinary pot and over the heat. And like Mrduckbear3, I also prefer the ones that were cooked either in rice cooker, steamed, and in a pot over the heat. And that's what asians do it.

[ShadowVampira]

OMG DUDE, YOU LIKE SO TOTALLY ROCK!! Imma add this to my list of microwaved food. I microwave meat loaf (in a silicon loaf pan) and pasta. Thank you so much for posting this video!

[punnett]

as an asian person, i assure you, rice will taste much better when you steam it ie. with a rice cooker.

[piano420]

Maybe...but maybe people want to know how to do it if they don't have a rice cooker...ya think? Pfft. Lol @ 'As an Asian person." Ya'll aren't the only race that knows rice.

Thank you for posting this...it was very helpful. ( =

[punnett]

You're right, maybe people who do not have a 'rice cooker' would love to know how to make rice otherwise. I however simply clarified that rice will not taste as good as the rice steamed via. rice cooker. I really don't wish to argue an argument that really never should have started in the first place. You continue on and eat rice in which ever way you please and I'll eat rice like I have been for the past 17 years.

[carlosgibson]

for some great tasting free simple to cook recipes go to

MYSPACE dot COM forward slash CARLOSTHECOOK

you wont be dissapointed

[yourtubeyourass21]

This is some serious stuff. This aint no joke. Everyone whos eating microwaved food should all read this. Please read everything throughly. Also be very sure to read about the microwaved plastic wraps towards bottom of that url. Very very very shocking.

[mrduckbear3]

i still prefer rice cooked imo, at least that's how asians do it. like me :)
