How to cook brown rice

2½ cups water

• Place the rice and the water into a saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to the boil and cook for about 25 minutes.
• Tip the rice out into a sieve to strain out all excess water. Place the rice back into the warm pot. Cover and allow to sit for 10 minutes.
• If using for fried rice, chill the rice in the fridge before using.
