Boil 4 cups of water in a pot.

Add instant rice and cover.

Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes until all water is absorbed.

While rice is sitting, melt butter in a large saute pan. Use enough butter so there is a thin layer of melted butter coating the bottom of the pan.

Add the rice to the saute pan. Cook for 5 minutes or so until the rice gets sticky, stirring frequently.
