How to Make Perfect Jasmine Rice in Your Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus

Are you tired of overcooked or mushy rice? Do you struggle to achieve that perfect balance between sticky and fluffy? Look no further! Making jasmine rice in your Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus is easier than ever, with minimal stirring required. In this article, we'll walk you through the simple steps to cook perfect jasmine rice every time.

The Secret to Perfect Rice

The key to achieving the right texture lies in the ratio of rice to water. We recommend a 1:1 ratio - one part rice to one part water. This ensures your rice is neither too dry nor too gooey, with just the right amount of sticky texture that will make it fall off your fork.

Essential Ingredients

To get started, you'll need:

* Jasmine rice (white long-grain)

* Water

* Olive oil

* Salt (optional)

Why Use Olive Oil?

Adding a small amount of olive oil to your pot helps prevent the rice from sticking and makes cleanup easier. It's a simple trick that will make a big difference in the texture and appearance of your final dish.

Seasoning Your Rice

Just like pasta, it's best to season your rice while cooking. This allows the flavors to meld together perfectly and adds an extra layer of depth to your finished dish.

The Recipe

Here's what you need to do:

1. Add 1 cup of jasmine rice and 1 cup of cold water to your Instant Pot Duo Evo Plus.

2. Add a small amount of olive oil (about 1 tablespoon) and stir gently to combine.

3. Close the lid and make sure the valve is set to 'sealing'.

4. Cook on high pressure for 6 minutes, followed by a 10-minute natural release.

5. Once the pressure has released, quick-release any remaining steam and open the lid.

Tips and Variations

* Use a big fine mesh strainer to rinse your rice before cooking, which helps remove excess starch and impurities.

* Experiment with different seasonings, such as garlic, ginger, or herbs, to give your rice an extra boost of flavor.

* Try using leftover jasmine rice to make delicious fried rice dishes or rice bowls.
