Instead of Uncooked rice
Basmati riceUse the same weight; rinse and soak as the recipe says. It cooks lighter and less sticky.
Long-grain riceUse the same weight; rinse well. Cooking time is similar but the grains may be less separate.
Parboiled riceUse the same weight but allow more water and longer cooking. The grains are firmer and less absorbent.
