i cook rice with one cup of rice to 1 1/4 cups of water

work out the weight of the rice, the water is about 300g . add to together and divide, and leave a bit extra of evaporation

one cup of cooked rice weighs approx 195 (according to google);

one cup of uncooked rice will yeild 3 cups of cooked rice (approximately). - according to google

so you need to cook about 1/3rd of a cup of rice.

alternatively, cook more and plan a rice salad for dinner

Ok, thanks. Just that I don't want any extra rice. It isn't something I eat very often. Could it be frozen if I end up with too much?

Yes rice freezes well and can be added to a soup anytime straight from the freezer. I use ziplock bags and let the air out and flatten the contents so everything in there is in a thin layer and will thaw within 15 minutes.
