Ingredients

  • 2 cups water
  • 2 cups parboiled rice
  • pinch of salt optional

Instructions

  • Start by rinsing your parboiled rice with cool, clean water.  This removes any extra dust or starch that has built up in storage.  
  • Next, add 2 cups of water, 2 cups of rice, and a pinch of salt (optional) to the bowl of your Instant Pot.  
  • Place the lid on the pressure cooker and turn it, making sure it seals properly. Using the high-pressure cooking setting, cook for 7 minutes.  When the high-pressure cooking is done, allow it to do a natural pressure release for 15 minutes. 
  • Once the natural release is over, press the steam release valve to release any remaining pressure.  Carefully remove the lid, watching out for steam.  Fluff rice and serve!
