Notes

The time it takes to cook the rice will change depending on how old the rice is, altitude of the location and variety of the rice.
This recipe has been tested on a 6 Qts Instant Pot.
Soft Rice For curd rice- Change the water ratio to 1 cup of rice to 3 cups of water.
Storing- You can keep cooked rice in the fridge for 3-4 days.Freezing the rice is also an option.You can freeze it upto 2-3 months.
Reheating -  Reheat the rice in the microwave in a covered container with a few sprinklings of water.
Another way is to add cold rice to boiling water for 1 minute and draining the water.This is my preffered method.
