Directions

Prep Setup – Start by adding canola oil to the Instant Pot®, setting it to sauté mode to warm the oil. This preheating ensures your meat doesn’t stick and starts the cooking process quickly.
Protein Preparation – Introduce the pork strips to the pot, stirring briskly to coat them evenly with oil, ensuring each piece starts to cook uniformly.
Vegetable Addition – Mix in the snow peas and bamboo shoots, ensuring a good stir to integrate fully with the pork.
Flavor Base – Add minced garlic and thinly sliced onions, distributing them throughout the pot. Their flavor will infuse the oil, enhancing the dish’s aromatics.
Rice Introduction – Incorporate white rice, making sure it’s well mixed with the other ingredients, ensuring even cooking.
Liquid Addition – Carefully pour in the vegetable broth and hoisin sauce, aiming for even coverage over the rice and ingredients. This step is crucial for creating the steam needed in pressure cooking.
Pressure Cooking – Seal your Instant Pot® and set it to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes. This quick, high-pressure cooking preserves flavors and ensures tenderness.
Post-cooking Activities – Once cooking is complete, perform a quick release of steam according to your Instant Pot® manual, then open the pot. Fluff the rice with a fork to prevent any clumps. If using optional peas, add now, replace the lid, and let sit for about 10 minutes to utilize the residual heat for further steaming.
Garnishing – Serve the stir-fry sprinkled with crushed peanuts and green onions, adding lime wedges on the side for a zesty finish.
