How to make Instant pot sticky rice

“Sticky rice,” formally called “glutinous rice” (glutinous, not glutenous—there is no gluten in it!), is a special type of short-grain white rice from Southeast Asia that, unlike regular white rice, becomes extra sticky when it’s cooked. It’s delicious and the perfect side for spicy Thai or other Southeast Asian foods. The downside is that it normally has to be soaked for several hours, or even overnight, before cooking. With this Instant Pot recipe, though, you can make it in 20 minutes—no soaking required!
Sticky rice makes a great complement to spicy, saucy dishes like Thai curries. It also serves as the base for the most delicious Thai dessert: Sticky Rice with Mango. You can cook the rice according to this recipe and then heat it in a thickened sauce made from coconut milk and brown sugar. Serve it topped with sliced fresh mango.
