Rice how I like it

In a sauce pot bring water to a full boil add in butter, salt, pepper, garlic powder and white rice. Stir up and cover and remove from heat and let sit untouched for 10 minutes

After 10 minutes uncover and fluff rice up with a fork and then serve.

For brown rice add everything all at once to the pot and bring to a full boil then reduce heat to med low and cover and cook for 10 to 12 minutes and don't open lid then stir up and cover and let sit for 5 minutes off heat.
