2 cups bulgur wheat

This Middle Eastern salad is best enjoyed at room temperature or chilled. If you’re in a hurry, you can prepare it as directed and then spread on a sheet pan to cool. This is how professional chefs cool cooked foods so that the temperature drops quickly and they don’t overcook. Jar size: 3 1/2 to 4 cups

INSTRUCTIONS

Layer the dry ingredients in the jar in the order listed.
Place all of the jarred ingredients into the Instant Pot. Add 4 cups of vegetable broth or water. Stir to mix. Cover with the lid and ensure the vent is in the “Sealed” position. Select the Rice function and Pressure Cook or Manual on Low for 12 minutes. Use manual pressure release.
Stir in the lemon juice and olive oil.
