Tips for cooking rice in microwave

[shagufta]

Purchase minute rice. Put equal parts of rice and water in a glass casserole or dish (with lid). One cup of rice and one cup of water feeds two people. Multiply recipe for additional servings. Stir and cover. Microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes. Remove from microwave. Stir. Replace cover. Let stand for 3-5 minutes before serving.

Does this apply to normal shop bought rice as well, the times seem about right, what do you think, I dont buy minute rice, just the normal rice you buy in a supermarket, I normally buy it in 2kg bags, so 1 cup of rice to 1 cup of water should work, right, if so is it at the times you stated for the minute rice??
Thanks for any help.
