Tired of sticky, burnt, or just plain sad rice? Believe it or not, your air fryer can be your new best friend for perfectly cooked rice! Forget the stovetop struggles; air fryer rice is surprisingly simple and delivers consistently fluffy results.
So how does it work? It's all about the convection heat circulating evenly. You'll need an oven-safe dish that fits comfortably in your air fryer basket. Think small casserole dish or even a cake pan.
Simply combine your rice and water (typically a 1:2 ratio, but check your rice package!), cover tightly with foil, and air fry! A general guideline is 350°F (175°C) for around 25-30 minutes, but times may vary depending on your air fryer and rice type. Check for doneness - the water should be absorbed and the rice tender.
Air fryer rice is a game-changer! It’s hands-off, consistent, and frees up your stovetop for other culinary creations. Give it a try and say hello to perfectly cooked rice, every single time.
