This recipe was tested using a 6-quart Instant Pot and long grain white rice. If you're using an 8-quart Instant Pot, additional liquid (1-2 cups) may be required. We have not tested the recipe using brown rice, cauliflower rice, etc. Using a different type of rice will drastically change the cooking time and amount of required liquid.
