This will depend on the size of your pot. You will be fine in a 6 or 8 quart/liter instant pot. The cooking time stays the same.

Thanks so much for your feedback, Lynn! Happy Instant Pot Cooking! :)

Thanks so much for your feedback, Jamie.

I used orzo instead of rice and it was delish! Also, ran out of butter (who does that?) and used mild cheddar and jack blend just to give the dish a little creaminess. Worked like a charm. The hubby and I agreed that this will be added to the repertoire!

:) Thanks for your feedback, Samanta! Glad to hear you like it and make it regularly.

Hi Pamela. I am afraid you can’t. Basmati rice cooks differently and also needs different amount of liquid. You can substitute arborio rice for other short-grain rice (like paella rice or sushi rice).

Hi Tina. I apologize for the late reply but just returned from travels. It is completely up to you – some people like to add a lot of parmesan (like me) some less. I always recommend starting with less, giving it a taste and then adding more, if needed or if you like. The reason why you should always taste it first is because you don’t want to over-season it (some stocks/broths contain more salt than others so for this reason you start with less rather than more). When it comes to butter, you can omit this completely or add a tablespoon. Hope this helps.

You are welcome!

:) Yes, the stirring part is no fun at all!

Absolutely!

Thank you!

Yay! Glad to hear that!
