This steamed jasmine rice recipe is also from Ching-He Huang's Chinese Food Made Easy recipe book. You'll also find it on the BBC website. It's a very easy rice dish to make, turning out nice and fluffy. No seasoning is added, but we found this wasn't required as the flavours of whatever dish you make to go with it will provide enough flavour.

Tips
- In the recipe book, Ching-He lists 600ml water in the ingredients list, however, on the BBC food website, it’s 600ml boiling water. I make it with boiling water.
- Try it with our chicken and cashew nut stir-fry or your favourite Chinese dishes. There are a few other Chinese dishes within the links below.
- The recipe is easily halved if you're only making for 2 people.
