Ingredients

  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 1 cup unsweetened (full fat) coconut milk
  • 1 ½ cups water
  • ½ - ¾ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • toasted coconut, optional (for topping)

Directions

  1. 1

    RINSE: Rinse the rice thoroughly under cold running water until the water runs completely clear, drain; set aside.

  2. 2

    PREP: In a measuring cup, combine the coconut milk, water, salt, and sugar, mix well.

  3. 3

    COOK: Add the jasmine rice to the pressure cooker. Pour the prepared liquid over the rice, close the lid and make sure the vent is sealed. Cook the rice on manual ‘high’ pressure for 5 minutes and allow the rice to have a 10-minute natural pressure release. After the 10 minutes of natural pressure release, release any remaining steam by turning the knob to 'vent' and fluff the rice using a fork. Top with toasted coconut flake and serve warm!
