Instructions on making the Instant pot Easy Coconut Rice –

 

Its a very easy Recipe, No spill and made with only 3 Ingredients. A detailed  printable recipe card can be found at the end of the post. A summary is here for your reference.

 

  • Rinse – rinse the Jasmine Rice well under tap water Until the water is clear and Soak it for about 1/2 hour .Drain the water after 1/2 hour . When ready to cook.

 

  • Coconut milk – The Coconut milk like I mentioned earlier could be either homemade or store bought . I just like to use thick coconut milk as I also add water to the recipe. This Kind of prevents any burn that usually happen when only Coconut cream is used . The Rice would get stuck to the bottom in the event of lack of liquid.

 

 

  • Its now that you stir in and add Water . I use water instead of stock (the stock has flavours that might not compliment the Creamy Coconut Flavour).

 

  • Add a little bit of salt . Adding Salt to the rice and Coconut enhances the flavours of Coconut.

 

  • Stir all the Ingredients well. Then Close the lid of the Instant Pot and keep the valve on Sealing and pressure cook for 3 minutes. After the cooking is done let the instant pot depressurise naturally . This takes  7 to 8  additional  minutes . let the Floating valve drop completely .Wait for additional minute and then Open the lid  .

 

  •  Fluff the Rice and serve Immediately with your main.
