Rice is a very inexpensive staple. And Instant Pot Rice only needs 3 minutes pressure cooking and 10 minutes natural release time. Plus by cooking a batch of rice at one time you have rice ready to serve in many different ways later in the week. #TexasHomesteader
Rinse 1 cup of rice until water runs clear. Then place in the pressure cooker's inner liner along with 1 - 1¼ cups of broth or water. (1 cup broth for firmer rice or up to 1¼ cups of broth for softer rice) Salt to taste.
Cook in Instant Pot on high pressure for 3 minutes.
When cooking time is up, allow 10 minutes natural release, then manually release remaining pressure by flipping the lever to 'venting'. (careful, steam can burn)
Fluff with fork & serve hot. Refrigerate leftover rice for subsequent servings.
NOTE: You're using one cup of rinsed white rice to 1 - 1¼ cups broth for this recipe. (depending upon whether you want firm or softer rice)
But depending upon the size of your pressure cooker you can multiply your quantity by 2, 3 or 4 for more rice. The same pressure-cook time of 3 minutes and natural release time of 10 minutes remains the same.
Most often when I'm batch-cooking rice: 3 cups rice, 3½ cups broth, 2 ¼ tsp salt. Pressure cook 3 minutes, natural release 10 minutes, fluff and serve!
