Thank you SO MUCH for this recipe!!!! I made it last night with some cacik and it was absolutely amazing. I have tried to make Uyghur polo (similar to this) in a wok before and it was so much easier to make this in the instant pot. The texture came out perfect with your instructions.
I used lamb stew meat and it absolutely melted and the rice was the perfect consistency.
My only recommendation would be to add more currants if you want to up the sweet factor!
At the stage where you add and cook the rice, when I hit "Rice", my Instant Pot kept saying "Auto", so I set it to "Pressure cook" on low pressure for 12 minutes instead and it came out perfect. I used brown basmati rice for this.
I also doubled the recipe so I would have leftovers and it worked great.
This will definitely be in my regular recipe rotation, and I can't wait to try your other recipes!!! Thank you again, this made my week because I have been wanting to make Uzbeki food!
