Japanese Rice Bowl

Step 1

Pour 1 cup of water, ¼ cup of soy sauce, 4 tablespoons of brown sugar, honey, and garlic and ginger into your instant pot and stir to combine.

Rinse your rice well to remove the extra starches and place the rice and add additional water into a metal bowl.

Step 3

Place the bowl on a tall trivet inside your Instant Pot.

Step 4

Set it to Manual Pressure and  Cook for 6 minutes, allowing for a 5-minute natural release.  Then do a Quick Release on the remaining pressure.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl combine 2 Tablespoons of water and 2 Tablespoons of Corn Starch, stirring to make a slurry.

Step 6

Remove the rice from the pressure cooker

Step 7

Add slurry to Teriyaki Sauce and stir. The sauce will thicken as you stir and as it cools down. Or press Saute to reduce liquid and thicken sauce.
