PERFECT EASY MICROWAVE RICE

Steps:

• Using a 2 quart casserole dish with lid, put rice, hot water, butter and salt in dish. Stir. (I put my casserole dish on a plate in the micro as sometimes the water boils over a little. Saves cleanup after).
• Cover, and microwave on high power 5 minutes. Stir with fork (careful watch the steam!)
• Cover and put back in microwave and cook on medium this time for 15 minutes.
• Remove lid (careful again!) and fluff with fork.
• Let stand 2-3 minutes.
• Serve.
