Camp Rice In The Instant Pot Recipes

INSTANT POT WHITE RICE

Steps:

• Place rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse under cool water. Drain rice and transfer to Instant Pot.
• Add water to the pot, and salt, if desired. Stir.
• Close the Instant Pot lid and turn the steam release valve to the sealing position.
• Use the Pressure Cook or Manual function to cook at high pressure for 4 minutes. The Instant Pot will take about 10 minutes to reach pressure and then the cook time will begin counting down.
• When the cook time ends, allow the pressure to release naturally for at least 15 minutes by leaving the Instant Pot alone.
• Carefully turn the steam release valve to the venting position to quick release any remaining pressure. When the pin drops down, open the Instant Pot lid.
• Fluff rice with a fork and serve.

INSTANT POT RICE RECIPE

Steps:

• Place 1.5 cups of white rice into a colander or a bowl and rinse under cold water 4-5 times; drain well. Don't skip this step as the water rinses excess starch, preventing the rice from getting stodgy and sticky when cooked.
• Turn the Instant Pot on. Transfer the drained rice into the pot and pour in 2 cups of water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt (or chicken or vegetable stock with no extra salt).
• Secure and lock the lid; make sure that the pressure handle on the top is set to the Sealing position. Select Manual/Pressure Cook button and adjust the time to 4 minutes at HIGH pressure. After a few seconds, the ON sign will come on indicating that the pressure is starting to build (you might also hear 3 beeps on some models). The time of 4 minutes on HIGH works well for thinner Jasmine and Basmati rice; for slightly thicker long-grain or medium-grain white rice, you could do 5 minutes.
• It will take about 5 minutes for the pressure to build, during which the cooking already begins. Then, the 4-minute timer will begin. Once the timer ends, leave the Instant Pot uninterrupted for 3-4 minutes to release pressure naturally. Then use the steam-releasing knob to let off the remaining pressure (or move the pressure handle to Venting). If you let the pressure release naturally longer, the rice will keep cooking very slowly, however, it will not have any liquid to absorb so it might get a little stuck to the bottom.
• Carefully open the lid. Use a fork or a spatula to stir and fluff up the rice before serving as a side with your favorite meat or vegetable dishes.

CAMP RICE IN THE INSTANT POT

Steps:

• 1. Set Instant Pot to SAUTE. When the Instant Pot has heated up add the salt pork and cook for about 4 minutes stirring every 30 seconds or so.
• 2. Add the chopped onions and cook another 4 or 5 minutes stirring every 30 seconds or so.
• 3. Puree the tomatoes in a blender and add them to the Instant Pot along with rice, sugar, celery seed, and black pepper. Give a quick stir to incorporate the ingredients together.
• 4. Close the Instant Pot lid and push the RICE button. (Cooking rice is one of the programs available for the Instant Pot.)
• 5. After pressure cooking has finished allow the cooker to cool down naturally until the float valve drops down, this will take 10 to 15 minutes.
• 6. Open the lid and spread the shredded cheese over the camp rice.
• 7. Serve and enjoy.
