Lean how to cook brown rice quickly and easily in the Instant Pot. This pressure cooker brown rice recipe guarantees perfect results every single time, in a fraction of the time compared to the stovetop.
Add rinsed rice and 3 cups water to the Instant Pot and pressure cook on high for 20 minutes, and naturally release pressure for 10 minutes, then quickly release the remaining pressure by turning the valve.
Carefully open the lid and fluff rice with a fork.
Notes
Rinse the rice under cold running water before adding to the Instant Pot. This helps to remove starch so that the grains don't clump together.
Naturally release rather than quick release the pressure. This will ensure that your rice is fully cooked through.
If making ahead of time, let the rice cool fully before storing or freezing.
