I keep getting a burn error.
I am using the stainless steel inner pot and my non-stick. Any troubleshooting tips?

Whenever you use an Instant Pot that doesn’t let you adjust the pressure level, your pressure cooking level will always be set to high pressure.

When I made this, I used less tomato paste. Then I also added some diced tomatoes, chicken broth, cumin, ginger, cardamom, and turmeric. (So I guess I like Indian food so much that I even add Indian spices to Mexican food.) I like my rice on the softer side, or “sticky,” as some would say, so I used extra water (1-1/2 cups rice and 3 cups liquids–broth and tomato paste).

I’ll be making it again this week. It was really good.

I have the same problem every time; tried it twice in an instant pot following the recipe exactly; please provide information if this just isn’t possible in an instant pot or how your recipe needs to be adjusted; this is beginning to be a major waste of food and time.

I’ve upped it to 2:1 water to rice + fresh tomatoes. It’s delicious, but it still scorches on the bottom, though I just bring it up to 5 lbs and immediately take it off the burner.and allow natural release. Next time I’ll up the water to 2.25:1 water to rice.

Hi there—I found that two cups of water and two cups of brown rice was not enough liquid. I had to put it under pressure again after adding more water. Just a heads up!

Hi Beth,
I blew it!
My rice came out kinda mushy.
I did the recipe exactly. My spices did not mix, even though I mixed them in the rice. It wasn’t too bad, just a little. What can I do to correct the amount of water?

Beth,
