Instructions
Instant Pot Rice

- Put vent in sealing position on the instant pot then add the water and rice.
- Cook at high pressure for 4 minutes then let sit for 5 minutes before releasing any remaining pressure.
- Turn the instant pot off and fluff the rice. Let sit until ready to fry in the wok.
Mushroom Fried Rice
- Rinse bean sprouts in cold water and drain.
- In a wok (or large frying pan), heat 3 tablespoons oil and stir fry mushrooms for 5-8 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Add bean sprouts and carrots and cook for another 2-3 minutes then remove everything to a strainer.
- Heat remaining 3 tablespoons oil in the wok and stir fry the cooked rice for 2-3 minutes.
- Push rice to the sides and pour in the slightly beaten eggs. Scramble until satisfied.
- Stir the rice and egg together then pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce and sesame oil. Also add the cooked meat or shrimp if using. Sauté together for 1-2 minutes.
