LPT: Wet a paper towel and place it over a bowl of rice while microwaving to keep it from drying out.

It shouldn't be drenched, just wet enough for a little droplet to escape if you squeeze it. When my stepmom taught me this, it saved me from having to cook 1 serving of rice every meal and let me have large batches.
