Serves: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 cup dry rice (Jasmine or Basmati white rice works best here)
  • 1 cup filtered water, plus more for rinsing
  • 1 Tbsp oil of choice (I recommend olive oil, coconut oil, or ghee), melted
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • for serving: chopped cilantro
Directions
  1. Rinse the rice in a fine mesh strainer well until the water runs clear. Shake out any excess liquid from the rice.
  2. Add the tablespoon of melted oil to the bottom of your instant pot. This helps prevent the rice from sticking to the pot.
  3. Add the rinsed rice to the instant pot. Sprinkle the turmeric, garlic powder, and sea salt over the rice, then add the 1 cup filtered water. Give the pot a shake so that the rice is in one even layer.
  4. Put the top on the instant pot, seal the lid, and set your instant pot to 6 minutes on MANUAL. Once the timer goes off, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes (meaning leave it alone for 10 minutes!).
  5. Pop open the lid, and serve warm with chopped cilantro.
