instapot jasmine rice

 i love to use my instapot for rice! it is easy, fairly quick and the rice turns out great.  i almost always use jasmine or basmati so i know this technique works for those two types. i am sure it works with others- i just have not tested it.

NEED:

• jasmine rice 1 cup
• water or broth  1 cup
• a little bit of oil 
• instapot

DO: 

• rinse your rice with cool water until runs clear (makes it less gummy) 
• turn instapot on to sautee and add a tiny bit of oil (or butter) 
• add the rinsed rice, stir frequently until a bit browned/changed color (adds a bit of flavor) 
• switch instapot to pressure high 
• add liquid 
• stir well 
• seal. cook 10 minutes & then natural release 10 minutes 
• fluff and enjoy

TIPS:

• can be doubled (2 cups rice, 2 cups liquid) 
• if i want more flavor (like for stir fried rice), i use chicken broth 
• if you want more protein, use bone broth 
• if you want to add a bit more flavor, use a flavored oil
