    How to Cook Basmati Rice in the Microwave

    Published: Mar 12, 2018 · Modified: Aug 8, 2023 by Vaishali · This post may contain affiliate links · 6 Comments

    Hi guys. I have an exciting news to share - I wrote a guest blog post! Squeal...Something as simple as making rice can be challenging. I have been thinking of doing "how to" recipes (have you seen this and this?), so when Steamy Kitchen suggested me to do a guest blog post on "How to cook rice in a microwave" I jumped at the opportunity. So for anyone who is looking for cooking perfect basmati rice, look no further. Running short on time, stove burners are occupied or you live in a dorm/hostel where a microwave is your cooking unit - now you can have fresh, homemade, fluffy and steaming hot rice whenever you want.

    Head over to Steamy Kitchen to read further. Here is the link:
