- Cover the pan and leave to cook for 10 min without disturbing.
- Test a few grains of rice approx they should be just al dente ie still slightly hard to the bite.
- The liquid should all have been absorbed. If necessary uncover and cook off any excess quickly.
- Spoon the rice (with the cinnamon stick and bay leaf) into a shallow dish dot with the extra butter then cover loosely with foil.

- Sophies notes:This method may seem longwinded but it produces perfect separate grains glistening light and delicately flavoured approx an ideal accompaniment to a hundred and one dishes. It can be adapted to any quantity: just measure the rice in a measuring jug then add in twice the volume of liquid. If you wish add in a shake of turmeric as the rice cooks to colour it yellow.
