Did you cook the rice in microwave? If so how long? and do you still use a 2 to 1 ratio
Thanks and looks good

Jasmine rice cooked in microwave.
One cup rice with two cups water. No lid. No salt. Microwave for 15 minutes on high. It will not boil over. at 15 minutes it is done (sticky rice). Remove and fluff with fork.
Long grain or basmati cooked in microwave.
1 cup rice with 1 7/8 cups water, a half teaspoon salt and if I'm doing it, a tablespoon of butter.
Microwave for 4 minutes, with lid - hopefully boils by then. Must be careful and watch it because it will boil over and mess things up. When you see it boiling, turn microwave off and start the next step.
When rice water boils, reduce microwave power to 30% power and continue microwaving for 15 more minutes. it will be done then. Remove and fluff with fork.
An alternate method for chicken seasoned rice:
Substitute chicken broth for water. two cans broth to one can rice plus an additional two Tablespoons. Salt is same, butter is same. cooking times and power settings are the same.
