Steps

• 1

  cook rice in instant pot/cooker and keep it ready. Wash the mushrooms well and drain water. Chop them finely.

• 4

  add turmeric, cinnamon and pepper. sauté for 15 secs.

• 5

  add mushrooms and salt. Mix well and Lower the flame.

• 6

  as mushrooms tend to give out water while cooking, I do open cooking for couple of mins till water oozes out mushrooms start to cook. When it is half cooked close the pan with a lid.

• 7

  allow the mushrooms to cook well. Stir occasionally.

• 8

  when all the water is evaporated, and mushroom well cooked, off the stove.

• 9

  when both rice and mushroom has cooled, take half quantity of both and mix gently. Keep adding a little of each other so the rice and mushroom mix are balanced and in proportion.
