I am looking for a recipe for making rice in the micro cookers.:)
 
Other than Minute Rice, you really need the Rice Cooker Plus to make rice. There was another thread where we were talking about this...seems you need to keep adding water if you use the micro cooker since it allows steam to escape too much!
 
Here is a recipe I make- my kids love it. I have never been able to make rice on the stove, but in my microcooker, this turns out awesome!

1 cup long grain white rice
1 3/4 cup chicken broth
2 tsp butter
1tbsp garlic infused oil

5 minutes on high, 15 min. on 50% POWER, LET STAND 5 MINUTES.

Hope it works as well for youas it does for me. Nancy
