Are you sure you mean brown rice?

I cooked it according to the recipe and by the end the rice was still virtually raw. I ended up cooking it on the hob for further 20 mins before it was even edible. I would normally cook brown rice on the hob for about 35 mins, so perhaps you mean easy cook brown rice, in which case you should amend the recipe.
