Spray non stick spray in the bottom of the pan and when it is done cooking remove it from the stove. You can also find very inexpensive rice cookers that are non stick

it depends on what ur heat is... it usually takes a while to steam rice without a rice cooker!!

Use a double boiler!

Heat a small amount (about 2") of water in the lower pan. Heat 2 cups of water plus 1 pat of butter to boiling in the upper pan. When the water in the upper pan comes to a boil add 1 cup of rice (amounts aren't as important as remembering that proportion). Stir and cover. Place upper pan on top of lower pan, and reduce heat under lower pan to low/medium.

Cook for 30 minutes -- perfect every single time!

get a rice cooker. seriously. my friend's mom is korean, and when i asked her how to make good rice, she laughed and took a rice cooker out of the cabinet.

Yes a rice cooker will do, you dont need to buy one thats expensive, they all work the same. You'll save time from cleaning and all that other stuff. Take it from me, we use a rice cooker every single day. I dont have to deal with messy rice in the bottom, we just give it a hot water soak, and tadaaa its clean! =)
