Mexican rice in an Instant Pot

After a busy day at work, cooking a dinner with minimal effort and not needing to watch a pan on the stove is a blessing  This is my first venture into cooking rice in my instant pot and it was a hit, really easy and great tasting rice.

Ingredients

Olive oil
Red onion, finely chopped
Garlic, finely chopped 
Red pepper, chopped
1 tsp paprika
1 cup long grain easy cook rice
1 cup chicken or vegetable stock
1 large tomato, chopped
Salt and pepper
Parsley, finely chopped

Method

Switch on sauté mode.
Wash rice in a sieve until water runs clear. Leave to drain.
Pop in 1 tbsp olive oil. Add onion and garlic, sauté until soft. Add pepper and sauté until garlic is beginning to go golden. Cancel programme.
Add paprika and stir well. Add rice, stock, salt and pepper and stir well. Sprinkle over tomato but don’t stir. Pop on lid with valve set to pressurise and set on Rice setting.
When instant pot finishes cooking, turn off and set timer for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes release steam, sprinkle over chopped parsley and fork rice to fluff up grains.

Serves 3
