Maryann: How long do I cook rice?
Howard: What kind of rice?
Maryann: The regular kind!
Howard: Brown rice? Quick rice? Paella rice?
Maryann: I should have just looked online!
Howard: Well, it does matter you know?
Maryann: If I had the bag, I would know how long to cook it!
Howard: Well, if it's brown rice, it takes the longest at 25 minutes.
Maryann: I don't think it's brown.
Howard: Okay, regular long grain rice takes 10 minutes.
Maryann: Okay.
Howard: If it's fat, round rice, it takes about 10 minutes as well.
Maryann: How about if I check it at 10 minutes and see?
Howard: That will work.
Maryann: Okay, thanks!
Howard: My pleasure. What are you having?
Maryann: Just some rice and veg. Like stir fry.
Howard: Sounds good. Add an egg at the end, just scrambled up. It's yum!
Maryann: Okay! Cool! Thanks!
It takes up to 25 minutes to cook brown rice and 10 to cook white rice. For her meal, Maryann will have some rice with vegetables and a scrambled egg.
