Instant Pot Barley

Step 1

Stir together barley, water, oil and salt in the insert of an instant pot.

Step 2

Cover and set vent to sealed. Pressure cook on high for 20 minutes.

Step 3

Carefully turn vent to quick release (or natural release if desired.) Remove lid and fluff with a fork. If there is excess moisture in the bottom of the instant pot insert, drain the cooked barley through a fine-mesh sieve.
