Instant Pot Steamed rice(white rice)

Since I am a die hard rice fan and rest of my family is a roti person, it becomes really bothering to make steamed rice everyday for myself(I hope all the rice lovers can relate). The rice feature of instant pot gave me an opportunity to enjoy rice with every meal . This hustle free recipe gives me rice in no time. Thought I should share it with all my friends here.

The only trick is the amount of water used. For instant pot there is a rule of 1:1.25 of water( For every cup of rice use 1 1/4th cup of water)

 For this recipe I used log grain basmati rice as they have natural aroma which I really like but you can try it with rice of your choice as let me know in the comments how well or bad they turned out.
