TIPS FOR USING THE PRINCESS RICE COOKER
BOILING RICE
To boil rice, use the outer pan with the inner pan placed in it; during the cooking keep the pan closed
with the transparent lid on.
Before you start it is important to know what kind of rice you are going to cook. Rice can be roughly
divided into 2 kinds, viz.
- White rice.
- Brown rice (unpolished rice).
Both kinds have several varieties, such as long-grain rice, round grain, broken rice, Surinam rice,
wild rice, Basmati rice, Pandan rice. This makes no difference for the method of preparation.
What is important is that rice can be bought as:
1. Ordinary rice; this is untreated rice.
2. Pre-cooked or pre-steamed rice.
The latter variety, the pre-cooked or pre-steamed rice, is often presented as 'fast-cooking rice',
'quick-cook rice', 'miracle rice' or '5-minute rice'. To achieve a good quality rice, the proportion between
the quantity of rice and the quantity of water is important.
1. Preparation of ordinary rice (brown rice and white rice, not pre-cooked)
- Measuring the rice:
To measure the rice use the measuring cup supplied. One full measuring cup is 100 grammes of rice,
which makes an average portion for one person. Put the desired quantity of rice in the inner pan.
- Measuring the water:
Next put water in the inner pan. Use the measuring cup supplied for this as well. A full measuring cup
equals 175 ml. water.
The table below gives a survey of the correct proportions and the resulting volume of boiled rice.

- Next, put the plug into the socket and switch the rice cooker in the 'cook' position by
pressing the switch.
- After some time the rice cooker will automatically switch over to the 'warm' position.
Allow the rice to stand in this position 5-10 more minutes with lid closed to absorb the
remaining moisture.
