I'd start over. Real hard to get something right with rice when it's been
cooked, and played with.
Depending on the rice, the proportion rice/water will vary, but usualy 1.5
to 2 water for 1 rice is about right. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover,
let simmer until all water is evaporated. Do not stir while it cooks. use
a fork to move the rice around and "fluff" it, put cover back on, let it
sit for 5-10 minutes, so the steam keeps on cooking it.
Even better if you have a rice cooker.
Good luck
