In a medium saucepan, bring water or broth to a boil. Add rice, salt and olive oil and give a good stir. Once boiling, cover, lower heat to low, and keep it at a gentle simmer.
Step 3
Simmer 35 minutes- and check for tenderness. (Timing will depend on the thickness of the grains which can vary.) Some grains will have burst open while some will have not.
