200g Jasmine rice
2 fresh lemon myrtle leaves (or 3 dried leaves)

Add the salt then bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and cook gently for about 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed.

Take the rice off the heat and se aside to stand for 10 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve immediately.
