It will pulverize your veggies if you have them in for the same length of time as the chicken. The stew is a better idea.

Chicken & veg recipe: There is a little bit of effort involved but this was pretty good for what it was: Instant Pot Hibachi Chicken It makes for tasty rice bowls. I ate that for a week of lunches and enjoyed it. Otherwise just go for a stew, yeah.

I found the best rice ratio to be the first cup of rice goes in at 1:1.25 water then 1:1 for any additional rice. The seven to ten minute low pressure cook for rice might not completely murder the chicken breast, but it will definitely be well done.

Does 7-10 make it mushy? I've only made rice in the IP once or twice though because I make it so often on the stove that I can do it on autopilot. I wash the rice so I'm probably closer to 1:1.25 too. https://instantpot.com/instantpot-cooking-time/

RICECHAT I find that 3 minutes, natural release does me perfect. I do 3/4cup rinsed rice to 1cup water. Put a frozen fish fillet on top of the rice to cook and you have fish rice. I posted the recipe before, it's amazing and stupid easy fast and delicious. Make fish rice. I'm making fish rice tonight.

I've made this twice now: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2015/01/quick-and-easy-pressure-cooker-chicken-lentil-bacon-stew-recipe.html It tastes great, but both times I've made it it's really stuck to the bottom of my stovetop pressure cooker. After the first time, I tried to avoid it happening again by making sure it was at a vigorous boil before adding the lentils almost immediately before sealing, then stirring, but that seemed to make no difference. Do you think this is due to something I'm doing wrong? Or is it because i'm using red lentils as opposed to another type?

The instant pot butter chicken, Google turns up a million results and I don't remember which one is the original Kenji's green chile pork Chicken stock in 2 hours, ezpz I made these baked beans with a few modifications (molasses instead of sugar, 1 ancho and one New Mexico for peppers) and they were good My only regret of instant pot ownership is that I already own one and couldn't justify buying R2D2

I made the butter masala just the other day and liked it a lot but it was so very sweet. As in, it felt like I put in actual sugar. Butter masala does have a sweet taste in general -- at least when compared to other curries -- and I'm sure it comes from the heavy cream which is kinda integral to the recipe but... Any suggestions on dialing down that particular flavour?

Use any old joghurt recipe. Milk and a spoonful or 2 of organic joghurt as a starter usually are all you need. It should actually be about 2 tbsp of joghurt per Liter of milk, heat milk to 90C let cool to just under 50C and keep at just under 50 C over night.

Does the amount of starter added to the milk actually matter? I've always just added an entire thing of Fage to mine.

She said the recipe is just some basic recipe on Google and the most important things are the starter (she recommends Fage but any live plain yogurt will work) and the milk (whole is better than 2%). The rest she said is just following the IP directions for yogurt. After the first batch keep some for starter.

How much time should I add if cooking stewing beef from frozen? The recipe as-is calls for fifteen minutes and quick release, then five more minutes (with the rest of the ingredients).

Lazyhound posted:How much time should I add if cooking stewing beef from frozen? The recipe as-is calls for fifteen minutes and quick release, then five more minutes (with the rest of the ingredients). If you start with tap water it shouldn't matter much if the chunks aren't too big since the meat will be thawed by the time it boils but adding 5 min won't hurt anything.

I always make my rice with equal parts water and rice and use the rice setting. Does that not work for other people? Does my rice suck and I just don't know it? Last night I did black eye peas. Sauteed onion, added garlic, sauteed that, added some smoked paprika, then chopped ham, lots of black pepper, pound of dried black eye peas, and 6 cups of chicken stock. Cooked for 17 minutes high pressure then let natural release for 15. Probably cooked have cooked even less time. It was so drat good. I wanted to drink the cooking liquid.

These were anything but that. Maybe the ones you've had haven't been cooked long enough? Fortunately IP/pressure cooker makes it so you don't even have to soak them.

JoshGuitar posted:As I understand it, the latest in cutting edge bean science says salt before cooking is fine, but hold off on acidic ingredients until they're cooked or at least pretty far along. THS posted:you should definitely salt your beans from the beginning, only acidic stuff has a negative effect. Reading around for a decent bean chilli recipe. Checked this thread, Serious Eats and Google, but in the latter case, I saw a bunch of all-looks-the-same mummy blogger sites, each one claiming their bean recipe will remove the need or desired to eat any other food ever again for any reason. Ideally a dump in the pot and leave recipe. Basically my kid loves bean chilli so every so often I make a lake of it in my slow cooker (before I got an IP)
