Why some people can do the things in much simpler way and why not others are the questions of debate. There might be several reasons which can be attributed towards that simpler way of doing work. Each individual has his own way to do the work and researches showed that in order to get the maximum output people should work in their very own way.

I saw several people who claim that they don't know how to do a particular work because they never have been shown the way how to do that. I personally feel this is just an excuse of not to explore something. It is not very difficult to find out the way how that works. Cooking is one of the things which most people try to avoid. The only reason why people want to avoid cooking is they don't like that. It is very difficult to find people who don't like food. Any delicious recipe attracts anyone. The reason why I know lots of Asian recipes is not that I had the experience of cooking all those recipes in past. This is more likely due to the interest I have for cooking. There are several recipes which I just invented by myself. If I get a chance I will share that with you all. Most Asian countries have rice as main food during their lunch and dinner.

The best way is to take one rice grain and check if it becomes soft enough as you like. If you have a little experience in that field you may say the same just by seeing the rice.

There are several ways you can make rice. The traditional way is to make rice in a bowl along with water. In this way you can cover the bowl with suitable container and then allow the bowl to be heated on a oven in high flame. Need to be careful if the water is coming out of the bowl. After sometime you may need to remove the cover and check in every three to four minutes whether rice is boiled properly.
