Instructions
- First, pour the water, milk, and salt into the inner pot of the Instant Pot.

- Once the rice is in, close and lock the lid. Move the seal to the “Sealing” position to trap in the pressure..
- Press “Porridge” and give it a few minutes to come up to pressure for 20 minutes.
- When the timer goes off, allow the Instant Pot to release pressure naturally for about 10 minutes and then do a quick release of the remaining pressure.
