Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups brown rice, basmati, well rinsed
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 2 green onions, finely chopped
Instructions
- Add Ingredients: Add the rice to the Instant Pot and then add the water. Shake the coconut milk and measure 1 cup; add it to the Instant Pot along with the salt and stir to blend.
- Pressure Cook: Secure the lid in place and ensure the vent is in the sealing position. Some pots are automatic.
