How to cook Starch free rice in Pressure Cooker ?

Procedure to make starch free rice in pressure cooker

Step1
Pour some half a cup of water in the pressure cooker

Step2
Place the cooker on the stove top

Step3
Take a inner vessel, add washed and soaked rice.

Step4
For normal pressure cooking of rice we use the rice water ratio 1:2, but for starch free rice cooking we need to add in some extra water ie the ratio can be 1:3 or 1:4

Step5
Place the inner vessel inside the pressure cooker and close the inner vessel with it's lid

Step6
Close the cooker with it's lid and place it's weight on top

Step7
Depending upon the quality of rice decide the whistle count.

For example,
           If red rice (Kerala matta) is used go for 3 whistle in high flame and reduce the flame completely & keep for 5 more mins.
           If normal white rice(Tamilnadu ponni) is used go for 3 whistle in high flame. Once we hear the 3rd whistle switch off the flame

Step7
Don't disturb the cooker let the pressure cooker depressurize on its own.

Step8
Remove the inner vessel from the pressure cooker. Be careful while taking out the inner vessel.

Step9
Drain the excess water.

Excess water contains starch and now starch free rice is ready to be served.

Note:

While cooking white rice 3 whistles​ in high flame is enough to cook the rice. After 3rd whistle don't reduce the flame if white rice is kept in lower flame for longer period (I mean 2 mins or so ) rice starts to absorb the excess water and becomes mashy and sticky.
