Fortunately, it only takes a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the machine and begin cooking a side of fluffy and delicious rice.

Things You Will Need

  • Water
  • Rice
  • Oven mitts
  • Hot plates
  1. Set your Westinghouse rice cooker on a flat surface that is close to an electrical outlet. Westinghouse warns that steam will emerge from the machine, so do not place it near any curtains.

  2. Rinse the cooking pan out with hot water and set it in the rice-cooker base.

  3. Pour 1 cup of water in the Westinghouse rice cooker pan for each cup of rice that you plan to cook. Then add the rice. Set the lid on the pan.

  4. Plug the Westinghouse rice cooker in and turn the cooking switch to the "On" position. Press the control switch down to start cooking the rice.

  5. Wait for the control button to pop back up. This means the rice has finished cooking. Wait another 10 minutes before opening the lid of the rice cooker.

  6. Remove the rice pan with a set of oven mitts and place it on a hot plate. Serve the rice.
