Ingredients

  • 2 cups long grain white rice
  • 2 1/3 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

Equipment Needed

  • Instant Pot

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash the Rice: Place the rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse it thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs clear, then allow it to drain completely.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Instant Pot: In the inner pot of the pressure cooker, combine the rinsed rice, water, a splash of oil, and a pinch of salt, then give it a good stir to mix everything together.

  3. 3

    Seal and Cook: Secure the lid on the Instant Pot and ensure the venting knob is set to the sealing position. Set the cooker to high pressure and program it to cook for 3 minutes. Once the timer sounds, let the pot sit undisturbed for 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Fluff the Rice: After the resting period, perform a quick release of the pressure, carefully remove the lid, and use a fork to fluff the rice gently before serving.
