Instant Pot Pot-in-Pot Rice (Pressure Cooker)
Report
Instant Pot pot-in-pot rice is a great way to prepare rice along with the entree for a one-pot complete meal. The pot-in-pot method saves time and let's you make a complete meal at once. Here is a step-by-step guide to cooking PIP rice in your pressure cooker.

Ingredients
- 1 cup basmati rice rinsed
- 1 cup water for cooking rice, see notes
- 1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1 tablespoon ghee or oil (optional)
- 1 cup water for main pot with trivet
Instructions
- Wash the rice and drain water. Put the rice in a bowl. Add 1 cup water for cooking rice in the bowl. Optionally, Add salt and ghee/oil if you prefer.
- Add 1 cup water to the main insert of the pressure cooker. Place trivet in the main insert. Place the bowl with rice and water on the trivet.
- Close the lid of the pressure cooker with vent in sealing position. Set in pressure cook or manual mode for 6 minutes at high pressure. (Note: if using a glass bowl, cook for 9 minutes at high pressure)
- When the pressure cooker beeps, do a 10 minute Natural Pressure Release, which means release the pressure 10 minutes after the beep.
- Fluff the rice and it is ready to be enjoyed.

Notes
- Ratio: If you like softer rice, you can increase the ratio of rice to water to 1:1.25 or 1:1.5. Totally up to your taste preference.
- Make it a meal: When cooking rice with an entree, consider the cooking time for the entree. If it is around the same range 5-12 minutes to cook the entree, then pot-in-pot rice with the entree in the main insert would work. However if the entree needs 30 minutes to cook, while the rice needs only 6 minutes, I do not recommend doing pot-in-pot white rice with the entree. You can consider pot-in-pot brown rice.
- Pot-in-pot container: I highly recommend to use a stainless steel bowl for pot-in-pot cooking. If using a glass bowl, make sure it is is oven safe and approved for pressure cooking. You will need to add 3-4 minutes more cooking time with a glass bowl.
- Created: This recipe was created in a 6qt Instant Pot DUO60 Multi-use Programmable Pressure Cooker.
