The 2 cups of water for each cup of rice is good if you are cooking just rice in a pot.
If your meat/veg. stock has some water in it, you should cut back some on the water. You can always add a little water, if needed, toward the end of cooking the rice.
If you put too much water then you will have "boil" the rice longer and over cook it. This will make the rice mushy.
Cooking time for the rice is 18 to 20 minutes.
