To cook basmati rice, rinse the rice until the water runs clear, then cook it with water using a ratio of about 1 cup rice to 1.5–2 cups water. Simmer until tender and let it rest before fluffing.
Popular recipes include pilaf, biryani, fried rice, rice bowls, and simple seasoned rice dishes. These highlight basmati rice’s aroma and texture.
Basmati rice provides carbohydrates for energy and contains some essential nutrients. Whole grain versions offer more fiber, which can support digestion.
Good substitutes include jasmine rice, long-grain white rice, or brown rice. Each offers a slightly different texture but can work well in similar recipes.
