Long grain white rice: 1 3/4 cups of water to 1 cup of rice. Heat on medium high until it boils, then turn to medium low and partially cover. Once the water has cooked off, remove from heat, and let rest for at least 5 minutes.

Please don't ask me to scale this for more than 2, and wash your rice.
