Secure the lid on the pot, lock it in place, and seal the vent. Choose the high-pressure setting and set the timer for 7 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for the pressure to build up before cooking begins.
Carefully release the pressure using the quick-release method as per the manufacturer's guidelines, which should take about 5 minutes. Once done, unlock and remove the lid. Give the rice a good stir before serving.
