Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups jasmine rice
  • 1 (13.5-oz) can full-fat coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)

Method
 

  1. Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs almost clear, then drain well.
  2. Add the rice, coconut milk, water, salt, and sugar to the Instant Pot. Stir once, scrape down the sides, and lock the lid with the vent set to Sealing. Pressure cook on High for 3 minutes. Allow a natural pressure release for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining steam.
  3. Open the lid away from you, fluff the rice with a fork, and serve hot.

Notes

If the rice looks a little wet right after opening, let it sit uncovered for 2 to 3 minutes; it will absorb the last bit of liquid. If you see a Burn warning, release pressure, add 2 tablespoons of water, stir, and restart.
