Instructions
 

  • I used a 3 Qt Instant Pot for this recipe. If you plan on doing 2 bags then I recommend a 6 Qt pot.

  • Place lid on pot and set to Sealing of your pot requires that. Most pots are self-sealing these days.
  • Press the Rice setting. This is an Auto setting so you don't need to select the time yourself. Your pot will sense how much is in your pot and adjust accordingly. My pot eventually came up with a 16 min cook time. Your pot will say Auto until it adjusts the time.
  • Once the cook time is complete, do a 10 min NPR. After that you can release the rest of the pressure. Fluff rice with fork and serve.
