- Seal the Instant Pot, select Pressure Cook (Hi) and set the time to 5 minutes.
- Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then release the rest manually. Open the pot and carefully remove the rice bowl and trivet.
- Mix the lentils with a spatula, adding more water until they reach the consistency you like; the dal thickens as it cools.
