Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion (, small (about ½ cup) finely minced)
  • 2 garlic cloves (pressed)
  • 1 cup basmati rice (, rinsed (200 grams), see note 2)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1.5 teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (, or to taste, see note 3)
  • ½ cup pureed tomatoes ((130 milliliters))
  • 1.5 cups vegetable broth ((360 milliliters), see note 4)
  • ½ cup red beans (, cooked and drained (90 grams), see note 5)
  • ½ cup green olives (, pitted, sliced, see note 6)

Instruction

  • Turn on instant pot. Press SAUTE and pour in olive oil. Add onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until translucent, stirring from time to time.
  • Add rinsed rice and cook until slightly brown, stirring regularly.
  • Add paprika, cayenne pepper and salt. Stir well. Turn off the SAUTE function by pressing CANCEL. Pour in pureed tomatoes and vegetable broth and stir.
  • Cover the pot with a lid and lock it into its position. Turn the steam releasing valve to SEALING and press the RICE function (this program will automatically adjust the time so there is no need to do this).
  • When the time is up, wait either 5 minutes before releasing the pressure manually (by turning the steam releasing valve to VENTING) or wait until it the pin drops itself (about 15 minutes).
  • Stir in cooked beans and sliced olives, garnish with cilantro (optional) and serve.
