There are different methods to make rice, like with or without covering the pot. To prepare the perfect cooked grains of white rice, you have to control the cooking points of rice.

Tips To Make Rice
Always use 1 portion of rice and two of water.
To make white rice use medium size kernels.
Keep stirring rice softly so that they don’t stick with the pot or each other but don’t stir too much. It also breaks the grains of rice.
When the rice starts boiling, put them on low heat; otherwise, the water evaporates early, and the rice grain remains hard and uncooked.
