Instant Pot Long-Grain Rice Recipe
Report
This easy Instant Pot long-grain rice recipe creates perfectly fluffy white rice every time. Try it with jasmine rice, basmati rice or brown basmati rice. (Note that brown basmati rice takes longer to cook.)One cup of uncooked long-grain rice yields roughly three cups of cooked rice.

Instructions
Rinse the rice
- Place the rice in a large mixing bowl and cover it with cold water. Swirl the rice with your fingers. Pour off the water, and repeat 4 times – or until the water runs clear.
- Drain the rice in a fine mesh strainer.
Cook the rice on high pressure
- Transfer the drained rice to the inner pot of the pressure cooker. Add the water, salt and (if using) coconut oil. Gently stir to mix everything.
- Lock the lid and move the steam release valve to the sealing position. Set the Instant Pot to pressure cook mode (or manual mode for older models) on high pressure. And set the timer for 4 minutes (jasmine rice), 5 minutes (basmati rice), or 22 minutes (brown basmati rice).
Natural pressure release
- After the cook time, allow 10 minutes of natural pressure release before pressing cancel. Turn the steam release valve to the venting position to quick-release the remaining pressure.
- Once the pin drops, carefully open the lid.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and serve your perfectly steamed Instant Pot rice.

Notes
- IMPORTANT: This recipe uses US cup measurements, not rice cooker cups.
- This recipe is for white long-grain rice, like basmati or jasmine, or brown basmati rice. The cooking steps are the same for each variety, but the rice-to-water ratio and cooking time differs. See the cooking table for more information.
- The oil reduces the foam that forms when the rice is cooking under pressure. But I omit it without a problem. Coconut oil or ghee also imparts delicious flavour.
