Description

Cooking white rice can be a bit of a challenge, especially if you don't have the right equipment. But with an instant pot, it's incredibly easy to make perfectly cooked, fluffy white rice in no time. This recipe is perfect for those who are short on time but still want a delicious and nutritious meal.

Prep Time

Preparation time for this recipe is minimal. It takes just a few minutes to measure out the ingredients and get everything ready.

Cook Time

Cooking time for this recipe is about 12-15 minutes. Once the instant pot is pressurized, the rice will cook quickly and evenly.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup white rice
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 1/2 tsp salt (optional)

Equipment

  • Instant Pot
  • Measuring cup
  • Measuring spoons

Method

  1. Rinse the rice thoroughly under running water until the water runs clear.
  2. Add the rice, water, and salt (if using) to the instant pot.
  3. Secure the lid and make sure the pressure valve is set to "sealing".
  4. Set the instant pot to "manual" and adjust the time to 5 minutes.
  5. Once the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.
  6. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve.

Notes

  • It's important to rinse the rice thoroughly to remove excess starch and prevent clumping.
  • The salt is optional but can add flavor to the rice.
  • Allowing the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes helps to ensure that the rice is perfectly cooked and fluffy.
