I try to make Rice-a-Roni and if I remember right, after I fry it in butter, I am supposed to add 2 and half cups of water, and bring to a boil, then down to a simmer.
But when it is done, it does not look like the picture, each rice and vermicelli is expanded and forms sort of a mushy content.
What am I doing wrong? Would adding less water make it more like it is supposed to, or would having less heat? What about turning off the burners and restarting them periodically to keep the water still hot but not overheat it, as normally I have the burner as low as it could go without going out.
