minute.

Cook on Manual
High Pressure for 5 minutes. When the timer beeps, allow the pressure to
naturally release for 5 minutes, and then quick release the remaining pressure.

Carefully open
the lid and gently fluff the rice with a fork. Add the sausages on top of the
rice and return the IP lid to let the mixture rest for an additional 5 minutes.
Stir lightly and enjoy!
