Perfect microwave rice

Ingredients:

• 2 cups long grain rice
• 3.5 cups of water or broth
• 1.5 tsp butter or vegetable oil

Preparation:

1. Place all ingredients in a large glass bowl or any microwave-safe bowl.
   
   Note: Rice expands during cooking, so be sure to choose a large container.
2. Microwave the rice on high power, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Then cook on medium power, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Do not stir the rice during cooking. Season with salt to taste and fluff with a fork just before serving.
