Instructions
- Slice your onion and cube your red pepper, making sure you get rid of the seeds.
- Load the onion and pepper into the instant pot and saute with a little extra virgin olive oil or until the onion has softened. Press cancel, add in the garlic and then sauté a little longer.
- Add 4tbsp of Nandos marinade with water until it reaches a volume of 2.5 cups (600ml). Add this to the instant pot and deglaze.
- Add in brown rice and all the seasonings and mix well making sure no brown rice is above the liquid.
- Place the lid on the instant pot, set the valve to sealing and pressure cook for 18 minutes followed by a 5 minute natural pressure release.
- After releasing the remaining pressure add in the frozen peas and fluff up the rice as you stir. Then your nandos rice is ready to serve.
Notes
- Quantities. I have used 2 cups of brown rice, which easily produces enough rice to feed four people for dinner. You can half this spicy rice recipe if you prefer.
