It's dinner time, the kids are hungry, and you don't have much time. Cooking rice in an instant pot is quick, easy, and doesn't need active involvement on your end. Here is how you do it:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of white rice
- 1.5 cups of water
- Salt (optional)
Instructions:
- Rinse the rice with cold water and drain the water.
- Add the rice to the Instant Pot.
- Add the water and salt (if using).
- Secure the lid and make sure the steam release handle is set to "sealing".
- Select the "Rice" button on the Instant Pot. If your Instant Pot doesn't have a "Rice" button, select the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" button and set the timer for 4 minutes on high pressure.
- Once the cooking cycle is complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, turn the steam release handle to "venting" to release any remaining pressure.
- Remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork.
- Serve and enjoy!
Note: The ratio of rice to water may vary depending on the type of rice you use.
Adjust the water accordingly based on the instructions on the rice package.
