Instant Pot Basmati Rice

 

 

 

Step 1:  Plug in Instant Pot

 

Step 2:   Measure and pour in two cups of Basmati rice.  If you like to wash your rice do that before putting it into the Instant pot.  

 

Step 3:  Pour in 2 cups of liquid.  I use chicken broth but you can use water or vegetable broth.  

 

Step 4:  Put the lid on the pot and set the dial on top to seal.  For my Instant pot that puts the arrow of the dial in the middle.

 

Step 5:  Push manual and the plus sign till you see Four minutes.

 

Step 6:   When the timer is up wait ten  minutes more. This is called a  natural pressure release, which means release the pressure manually after 10 minutes, after the instant pot beeps.  

 

Step 7:  Turn the lever to venting and release the pressure.

 

Step 8:  Dish up your rice and serve.
