Boil Potato in Instant Pot :
Potatoes are perfect to steam in a pressure cooker, and it takes less than 30 minutes to get perfectly cooked potatoes. I use boiled potatoes in many dishes, such as potato peas curry, potato paneer, Alu Paratha, spicy potato, mashed potatoes etc.
Typically, we boil potatoes in my stovetop pressure cooker, but this method requires constant monitoring. When you open the pressure cooker, it’s uncertain whether the potatoes are adequately boiled or not.
But with the instant pot, just set the time and do a natural pressure release and behold the potatoes are done in jiffy.
This method is quicker compared to cooking in a pot on a stovetop. Do not need to keep a count of whistles and need to stay there to turn off the stove.
Now how to do it.
Add 1 1/2 cup of water in instant pot. Make sure that base is not touching the water.
Place trivet in the pot. Place potatoes on the trivet.
Close the instant pot lid and make sure that the valve is in the sealing position. Pressure cook on manual for 10 minutes
or Set the mode steam and set the time to 8 -10 minutes as per the quantity of potatoes.
Now Let the pressure release naturally. As the pin drops, open the lid. Check the potatoes by inserting a fork or a knife. It should go in easily without any effort.
