360 ml (1+1/2 cups) cold water
sesame seeds (optional)

1

Rinse the rice 3-4 times in cold water until the water runs clear. Drain the rice.

2

Place the drained rice into the rice cooker insert. Cover with the cold water. Level out the rice so it's even.

Turn the rice cooker onto one cycle for white rice (this can vary between rice cookers - anything from 25 minutes to one hour).

4

Remove the lid and serve, topping with a sprinkling of sesame seeds if desired.
