🥗Healthier: brown rice

💰Cheaper: parboiled rice

Brown rice offers more fiber and nutrients, while parboiled rice is often less expensive.

Rinse rice under cold water until water runs clear to remove excess starch.

Reduce heat to low and cover the pot with a lid.

Simmer for 15-20 minutes until water is absorbed and rice is tender.
