What recipes can I cook in the Instant Pot?
America’s most popular multicooker, Instant Pot, came out on October 2010 and has changed cooking with its instant cooking technology.
The Instant Pot is an electric pressure cookers with multiple functions and presets.
This appliance lets you cook rice, meals, soups, stews, broths and sauces (liquids are rarely compatible with air fryers).
As one of the unique air fryer types, the Instant Pot Duo Crisp + Air Fryer comes with two lids: one for pressure cooking and one for air frying.
With so many permutations of meal possibilities, making meals on your own can prove to be daunting and a lot of trial-and-error.
What this means is we can keep on trying, or we can look at more tried and true recipes until we’re comfortable.
