  • 2 cups water see notes
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil or butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Add the rice to a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cool running water until the water runs clear.
  • Add the rinsed rice to the Instant Pot along with the water, oil or butter, and salt.

Notes

This recipe is easy to scale up or down depending on how much rice you need. You’ll want equal parts rice and liquid.
This recipe will make about 4 cups of rice. We use only do around 1/2 cup servings on rice, but if you like bigger servings plan accordingly. 
For a basic jasmine rice, we use water as the liquid. For something more flavorful, we’ll use chicken or veggie broth for the liquid.
