It may be necessary to adjust the water to your
personal preference.
• Using a large size dish will prevent the rice from
boiling over.
• Do not cook rice in plastic dishes as incorrect
cooking times may result.
• Cover securely with plastic wrap.
• During cooking, the oven will ‘beep’ and instruct
you to stir and ‘remove cover’. Remove the plastic
wrap or lid and stir. There is no need to cover the
rice again.
• At the completion of the cooking time, let stand 5 to
10 minutes.
