    Yeah, I do wash the rice. I was just getting so annoyed with my rice sticking to my rice cooker. Wasted so much!

    I have just purchased a microwave rice/steamer. Typical, maybe should have tried the pyrex option. Do you also use 1 part rice to 2 parts water?

    Hi, yep, that's what I would do ... perhaps a little bit under 2 parts water but keep checking it; I put mine on for 9 minutes first then gauge it from there.
    HTH!
    That's Numberwang!

    My rice cooker came through today so looking forward to trying that out. At very least it comes with instructions which could be used with a pyrex dish. Not bad for £6 inc P+P...
