I have not cooked rice on the stove since buying my electric pressure cooker! This Instant Pot brown rice recipe is so easy, and you can vary it up however you like; add spices or seasonings before cooking or fold in nuts and dried fruit after cooking.

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups water
  • 2 cups brown basmati rice
  • 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil , Optional
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt , Optional

Instructions

  1. 1

    Combine water, brown rice, oil, and salt in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Close and lock the lid. Select Manual and High pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  2. 2

    Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes.
