Ensure to coat the oil over the whole bottom of the pot. Add in the seasoned pork shoulder meat, then let it brown for exactly 5 minutes on each side (don’t need to keep flipping the meat). Remove and set aside to rest for 5 minutes on a chopping board.

Add in the mushrooms and cook for another minute. Taste seasoning and adjust with more kosher salt and ground black pepper if necessary.
  5. Cut Pork Shoulder Meat: While the mushrooms are sautéing in the pressure cooker, cut the pork shoulder meat into 0.5” thick slices.
  6. Deglaze: Pour ½ cup (125ml) HK Tomato Sauce mixture in the Instant Pot. Deglaze by scrubbing all the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the pan and mix them into the sauce.
  7. Pressure Cook Pork Shoulder & Rice: Add the sliced pork shoulder meat with all the meat juice in the pressure cooker. Pour in the remaining sauce mixture.
