If you have left over cooked rice, use it to make congee / rice porridge quickly using the Instant Pot. If you want to make congee from scratch, check out my recipe here.
Be sure to click on the accessories list below to get the most out of your Instant Pot.

Pour 3 Cups of Water into the Instant Pot and add 2 Cups of Cooked Rice. Stir it up to break up any clumps. Seal the lid and Choose High Pressure for 10 minutes. When the timer is up, wait 5 minutes before switching the knob to venting. Once the pin has dropped, open the lid and stir gently – if you like the texture thinner you can add a little bit of water. Enjoy with sides such as spicy fermented bean curd, pork or chicken floss, Chinese pickled cucumbers, salted duck eggs, or youtiao / Chinese doughnuts.
**You can make a different amount by keeping the same proportions of 1 Cup of Cooked Rice to 1½ Cups Water.

I love it! Thank you for sharing this- I used chicken stock instead of water and it was great. What seasonings would you suggest?

You’re welcome Peter, I usually don’t add seasoning to congee because I eat it with salty side dishes, but a lot of people like adding soy sauce, sesame oil and green onions.
You might like this recipe as well, if you’re looking for more flavor in the congee: https://foodisafourletterword.com/recipe/instant-pot-century-egg-rice-porridge-recipe-chao-hot-vit-bac-thao/

Holy crap THANK YOU. It is now 2023 and of you can believe it, almost no recipe blogs make jook with both an instant pot and cooked rice? This is a godsend and also my breakfast! Cheers!
