Recipe type: Main
Serves: 5 people
Ingredients
- Brown basmati rice or regular brown rice- 2 cups
- Water- 2¼ cups
- Salt- ½ tsp (optional)
Instructions
- I've used Instant Pot for pressure cooking the rice.
- Rinse the rice taken in a strainer under running water. I didn't soak the rice, if you prefer can be soaked for 15 minutes.
- Into the stainless steel pot, add rice, water & salt.
- Close the pot with the lid.
- Select pressure cook setting, set time to 25 minutes at high pressure.
- After 25 minutes of pressure cooking, do a quick pressure release.
- Remove the stainless steel pot from the main pot & keep it covered with a lid.
Notes
-Cooking in a rice cooker, for 2 cups rice add 3¾ cups water.
-Cooking in a saucepan over stovetop: for 2 cups rice add 4 cups water, brown rice takes longer time to cook, to be cooked for at least 35 to 40 minutes till the rice turns soft.
