The pressure cooker method saves times for SOME things. For rice, until the pressure comes up, the rice could have been done already.
I like to make basmati rice, meanwhile sautee diced onions and mushroom stems and pieces together (or even add chopped celery and walnuts), and mix it all together. Yummy. I have used that to stuff chicken cutlets, also, with an egg mixed in to hold it together better, and then rolled up and baked until the cutlet is done. Great with mushroom sauce poured over it.
