1
Prepare the rice
Add a couple of cups of rice to a medium sized bowl and look for any unwanted objects. Remove them carefully and check a few times in order to make sure that there is no residue left. -
2
Wash the rice
There are different ways of washing the rice. One is by putting it in a bowl filled with water and then stirring it for a couple of minutes before changing the water again. The better thing would be to put all of the rice in a strainer and open a tap of cold water over it. The rice will be properly washed by itself and you will not be required to do anything extra for it. -

Put rice in a bowl
After you have washed the rice and removed the unnecessary objects, put it in a bowl and set it aside for a while. -

Prepare the pot
In the meanwhile, pour 20 cups of water in a large quart pot and bring it to a boil. Remember, you don’t have to put the rice in the water until it boils. -

Pour brown rice into pot
Once the water comes to a boil, put all of the rice in it. Reduce the heat of the stove otherwise the water will come out of the pot. Continue cooking the rice for about 30 minutes and keep on stirring after a few minutes with the help of a spatula. -

Strain the rice
After half an hour, strain the rice just like you would if you were making pasta. Put it back inside the pot and simmer for 10 minutes to get your delicious brown rice cooked. -
