Equipment

  • Instant Pot

  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon bouillon (chicken or vegetable, I like Organic Better Than Bouillon)

Instructions

  • Use sauté button on the pressure cooker, add 1 teaspoon oil and sauté the garlic, 30 seconds.
  • Add the brown rice and stir, press cancel, and add the water, salt and bouillon.
  • Stir well, then cover, lock the lid and cook on high pressure 20 minutes. Then use natural release for 20 minutes total (the steam will finish cooking the rice).
