3.Cover completely with the lid (do not remove the lid again until rice is completely cooked) and turn the heat down as low as possible. Cook a further 10 minutes. Remove the pan completely from the heat and leave to stand a further 10 minutes before removing the lid and serving. Fluff with fork before serving.
