I tried doing rice a bit differently to normal this evening, following Delia's approach. Ordinarily I'd rinse the rice a lot under the tap, then put in a saucepan with more than enough boiling water and cook until done, then strain and serve. But it often clumps together on the plate and I thought it must be possible to do better.

Delia's approach involves a large covered saucepan, no rinsing, just enough water, almost no stirring and a couple of important other tips. I'd say that it 'worked' but that it was still just rice at the end of the day and I'm not sure it was worth it. Not having my usual rice alongside to compare with made it hard to know whether it was much of an improvement. I'd post a picture of my result, but it would be really very dull.

  1. Rice cooker!
    My mum gave me one that you stick in the microwave.
    It sort of counts as cheating, but still.. rather nifty.
