The easiest way to make brown rice!

Ingredients

  • 1 cup long-grain brown rice

Instructions

  • RINSE rice in a fine-mesh strainer under running water until water runs clear. Place rice, water and salt in the Instant Pot.

  • PUT the lid on the Instant Pot and close the pressure-release valve. Press Manual Pressure Cook button, on High, and set for 25 minutes (will take 6 min to come to pressure).
