How much rice do you cook for 10 people?

 

How to Cook Rice for a Crowd

The amount of rice you cook for 10 people depends on the portion size and whether rice is the main dish or a side dish. Here's a guideline:

 

1. Main Dish:

Cook about 1 cup (180–200 grams) of uncooked rice per person.

For 10 people: 10 cups (1.8–2 kg) of uncooked rice.

 

2. Side Dish:

Cook about ½ cup (90–100 grams)** of uncooked rice per person.

For 10 people: 5 cups (900 grams–1 kg) of uncooked rice.

 

Notes:

Uncooked rice doubles in volume once cooked. For instance, 1 cup of uncooked rice yields about 2 cups of cooked rice.
