- 1 cup red rice
- 1.5 cups water
Wash the red rice thoroughly in cold water. This removes excess starch that causes claggy rice.
Drain the rice and put it in the Instant Pot / pressure cooker.
Add the water and gently stir. Ensure all rice grains are sitting under the water.
Put the lid on the Instant Pot and set it to pressure cook mode, high, for 20 minutes.
After the cooking time leave the rice to naturally release for ten minutes.
After 10 minutes if there is still pressure carefully open the valve to release. Open the lid and use a spoon to stir the rice.
If the rice still has moisture, let it sit for five minutes to steam off.
