Instant Pot Rice and Peas | Jamaican Rice and Peas

#jamaicanriceandpeas #instantpotrice
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup DRY red kidney beans
4 cups water FOR PRESSURE COOKING (You will only be needing 2 cups of the liquid that's left after pressure cooking the peas)
Salt to taste
3 - 4 cloves garlic
1 cup coconut milk (not 1 CAN, you need 1 measuring cup of coconut milk)
3 cloves garlic, sliced
4 - 6 allspice berries
3 stalks scallion, chopped or diced
4 - 6 sprigs fresh thyme
1 1/2 - 2 tbsps coconut oil
1 tsp brown sugar(optional)
salt and pepper to taste
1 or 2 whole scotchbonnet peppers
2 cups Basmati Rice, rinsed till water runs clear (Use other rice if you prefer)
⬇️
✅IF YOU'RE USING CANNED BEANS:
1.Add 2 cups water to instant pot
2. Add 1 cup coconut milk to the instant pot
3.Add seasonings and herbs etc
4.Stir in the rinsed rice THOROUGHLY and follow cooking instructions in video
⬇️⬇️⬇️
✅ Steps in video:
1. Select Rice setting
2. Then leave on "LO" for 5 minutes
3. Then turn it off and leave it alone till the pressure releases naturally.
⬇️⬇️⬇️
✅ RATIO FOR USING THE INSTANT POT RICE SETTING is usually...
1 cup liquid : 1 cup rice
However, we're not just cooking rice, we're adding peas so the instant pot needs a little more liquid. This is why we need that extra cup of liquid which is the coconut milk in this case 😁
So for this recipe we have...
2 cups rice : 2 cups "Peas water" 😄
1 cup peas : 1 cup coconut milk
IT ALL WORKS OUT! 😄 Enjoy guys

I tried this today and let me tell you I will never cook rice and peas on the stove top again . This took 30 mins in total to cook. Pressuring the pre soaked peas 15 mins and cooking the rice another 15. Your measurements were spot on as well. Thanks!!!

[@JerenesEats]

So easy!! 😁

[@nram1]

This turned out great. A good way to cook some traditional rice and peas.

[@KhesaPinkard]

Thanks. I made some of this for dinner tonight and it came out so good.

[@JerenesEats]

This and the gungo peas one turns out perfect and delicious every single time!

[@JerenesEats]

Stress free!!!

[@ReneeC799]

This is the only way I cook my rice& peas now. The only difference is I let mine slow release without turning the pot off, until it says LO25. But this looks perfect!

[@yawlivn4him493]

This recipe is amazing. I made this for the first time ever and it was soooooo good.

Sometimes I have brown rice which takes longer to cook. So when I use this for rice and peas, I use the pressure cook Normal setting instead of Rice. I never tried the Rice setting so I don't know how that would turn out.

[@julietsingh1076]

Love your cooking.. this pot looks so yummy 😋... what kind of basmatie rice did u use.. can u use brown rice too.

[@JerenesEats]

I've never cooked brown rice in my instant pot buy I suspect you'd need more time or more liquid

[@chrisstewart8055]

Hi really interesting video, I was wondering is the method mentioned different if you use long grain rice..?

[@JerenesEats]

In the instant pot, it's 1:1 ratio for liquid to rice. For brown rice, it may need a little more but I haven't cooked brown rice in it yet

[@javanisolomon8374]

Looks delicious! What kind of rice did you use

[@jacquelinesmith9450]

Basmati rice

[@donnaa858]

Peas Water😊😄

[@lejalamorena]

Hi! If using canned beans, how many cups/cans would be equivalent to the yield of one cup of dry beans?

[@JerenesEats]

Hi! Lemme make this easier for you ➡️Here's the tutorial for using canned beans/peas kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5rYZJx3abNreqMsi=V4gOTpfGfP1kZ-s_

[@JerenesEats]

A 15 oz can of beans is equal to about 1/2 cup DRY beans

[@lejalamorena]

Thanks so much! Trying my hand at this tomorrow 🎉

[@michaelaolabisi2958]

If I want to use canned beans. what would the ratio be? 1 cup rice, 2 cups water, 1 cup bean, 1 cup coconut milk?

[@JerenesEats]

Yes for rice on the softer side you may do that OR you could just match the amount of liquid to rice which would be 1 cup rice 1/2 cup coconut milk 1/2 cup water 1 cup beans

[@islandspice411]

I keep having rice stuck at the bottom of mine but I also have a different model IP. I do use 1:1 ratio so Not sure what I'm doing wrong

[@JerenesEats]

Whenever I use pressure cook setting it sticks. Whenever I use the rice setting it doesnt stick

[@islandspice411]

@@JerenesEats that must be it

[@JerenesEats]

@@islandspice411 Yeah and sometimes there's too much starchy stuff on the rice as well. Once it's washed till the water is completely clear that really helps too🙂

[@GazaGoddessDoniaWife]

This didn't turn out too well for me. The rice was cooked but was too moist. I used a 15 oz can of beans, a 13 oz can of coconut milk, 3 cups of water and 3 cups of rice. The beans were drained. I just used the rice setting on the instant pot.

[@JerenesEats]

Sorry to hear that. I always suggest just 1 cup of the coconut milk because the 13 ounce can = 1.6 cups

[@fwb777]

Hi, what I did, is after the rice setting and it was moist, I then pressure cooker for 4 mins

[@Kinggamelol15]

Low or high pressure for the bean?

[@JerenesEats]

I'm using the lux mini. Just select pressure cook
