Simply Spiced White Rice

Boil the water in a kettle. While it's heating up, continue with the next steps

Wash and strain the rice. It's important to "knead" the rice a bit so the water that comes off of it is clearer.

Mix the powders in a cup or measuring cup. Try to break up large chunks if any exist.

Pour the oil into the cooking pot intended for the rice. Begin heating on a medium-high flame.

Add boiling water to the mixed powders, and mix well.

Add the rice to the pot, and mix it for 1-2 minutes, taking care not to let the rice stick to the sides or bunch up in chunks.

Add the water and powder mixture to the pot, mix for a few seconds, then place a lid over it and wait for the water to boil.

Once the water has boiled, lower the heat to a low flame, and let it sit for ~30 minutes.

Rice is done!
