The Ultimate White Rice

I don't know about you, but I can't make rice to save my life. This little recipe comes out perfect every time...and it is a little extra tasty! Go figure...it has garlic in it!

Perfect White Rice

3 cups uncooked basmati rice
4 ½ cup water
1 ½ TBSP olive oil
1 large garlic clove, peeled
1 ½ tsp salt

Rinse the rice in a fine wire strainer until the water runs clear; drain. Combine the rinsed rice, 4 ½ cups water, and the remaining ingredients in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Boil, uncovered for 3 minutes. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Fluff the rice with the fork and remove the garlic clove. Enjoy!!
