I picked up an Instant Pot during the Amazon Prime sale, and tried it out today. My mom put the fear of explosion in me years ago (she had one explode, although fortunately she wasn't hurt -- but she did scare me telling me about it), so I was making all kinds of scared faces while it did its thing. But no problems. I made basmati rice -- figured it was simple enough.
I followed the instructions in the enclosed booklet, and it was fine, although a tiny bit overcooked. I think it doesn't need to be soaked, just rinsed. But I'm having it with some curried veggies now, and not bad at all. And fast and easy.
I'd like to try cooking some dal, and I have some frozen chicken breasts that need to be cooked soon. Anybody else have an Instant Pot? Any favorite dishes?
