Use 1 cup of water for every cup of white or brown rice. Select the Rice programme, which cooks on low pressure for 12 minutes. When it finishes, let the pressure release by itself for 10 minutes before you release the rest. These steps are for the Duo Plus. Other models are similar, so check your user manual.
Steps
- Put the rice and water in the inner pot. Don't fill it past the ½ line, as rice expands.
- Close the lid and set the switch to Seal.
- Select Rice. It's set to 12 minutes on low pressure, for medium and long-grain white rice. You can change the time from 1 minute to 1 hour.
- Press Start.
- When it finishes, leave it for 10 minutes so the pressure releases naturally, then release the rest.
- Wait for the float valve to drop before you open the lid.
Grain to water
- White or brown rice: 1 cup rice to 1 cup water
- Quinoa: 1 cup to ¾ cup water
- Risotto: 1 cup rice to 2 cups liquid
