an instant pot and an air fryer definitely have a place in a small kitchen without a built in oven with hob, would be great for students and temporary living accommodation and single people like myself. steaming chicken portions and beef joint is Great too, you can release pressure half way through and add potatoes or veg or you could saute with onions before pressurising and then use them for onion gravy which I did at Christmas

The main draw for an Instant Pot vs other electric pressure cookers is that they use a stainless pot. The non stick coating in the other ones can scratch and degrade over time. it is really great for a "dump and go" type of meal. Easy meal - dump in dry pasta of your choice, 1 jar of sauce (once emptied add water into the jar the sauce came out of put the lid back on, shake and then pour out into the pot) add in frozen chicken breasts and if you want some frozen veg. Cook on the pasta setting and use the natural release. Open, add some shredded cheese - stir - and enjoy. Also lentil soup - dry lentils, chicken broth (or veg broth if vegan) and spices.. in about 30 min you will be eating the most amazing soup. It is the best rice cooker. I have an air fryer and pressure cooker and now the stove is just used for things I want to cook in a fry pan ;)

@mrbarrylewis The Instant Pot used as a slow cooker is terrible, IMO. A slow cooker cooks from the sides and the bottom, but the Instant Pot only cooks from the bottom. So even though it can cook something slowly for 6 hours, because it only cooks from the bottom, the cooking is very uneven, whereas, in a Crockpot (slow cooker), the cooking is cooked evenly all around.

One of my favorite things to cook in my Instant Pot are actually boiled eggs. 1 cup of cold water, and however many eggs you want, pressure cook on low for 1 minute (plus warm-up time, of course), and then let the pot naturally release for one minute, and you get _properly_ runny-yolk soft-boiled eggs. If you want it firmer, just leave it for longer. Just an extra half-minute to a minute will do wonders. I've also had fun playing around with sous vide in it, since my cooker does have a sous vide function. Still, I've done risotto in it, and I will also use it to cook steamed veggies, and steel-cut oats. I've actually got a pudding basin, which I'll use with the steamer rack so that I can cook the oats in their own milk with the sugar and all of the other add-ins that I'm after. It's a wonderful piece of kitchen kit.

My fav is being able to take a pot roast from our deep freezer and know that we'll be able to be sitting down to a full meal in just over an hour 1/2 or so. Whereas in the past i would have needed to cook that thing low and slow in the Le Creuset in the oven for multiple hours. Also... They make silicone cake pans specifically for the instant pot/ninja foodi that really help with that burning on the bottom. We also EXCLUSIVELY use or Foodi for making hard boiled eggs!! Perfection every single time. The 5-5-5 method hasnt failed us ever!! We love this thing so much we decided to get one for the lake house 😂 now THAT one has a yogurt setting.It's a larger capacity one with more options than our one here at home BUT the options were things hubby i liked and want to use once he retires and we're moved out to the lake house permanently haha. Noe i just need to stsrt using THAT one more to learn its options snd functions 🙌🫶 These appliances, no matter the brand, definitely have made cooking a lot more convenient, thats for sure.

Hi barry, sausages are called bangers because during the WW2 with rationing they were bulked out with breadcrumbs and water. Which would then explode. Today unless you are buying absurdly cheap sasages you dont ever need to pirece them. Also you NEVER need to pierce anything in a pressure cooker as due to the very nature of it being a pressure vessel things inside cannot explode. That said with meats it is better to let it naturally release pressure as it stops the meat from losing moisure as sudden drop in pressure causes the internal water to evaporate. Kind of like how freeze drying draws out the moisture 👍

Stick in one for 15 minutes and it’s great. Takes less than 1minute to prepare but it’s healthy, filling and tasty. Plus all the ingredients are long life items I always have on hand.

Also important: Some recipes will specifically state to use slow/instant release or if the release option doens't matter. The slow release includes an extra 15minute of slow cooking. So if you're instant releasing it, your food could still be raw/uncooked. So if you find a recipe online for the pressure cooker and the cooking time is very short (15-30mins) they usually add the slow release for an additional 15mins of cooking.

Again, I don't know if you could do this in the Insta-Pot, but if you feel like flirting with danger, it's an idea.

pressure cookers only explode if the safety valve is faulty or not working correctly. Even with the valve closed they should automatically release excess pressure once they reach the safe limit, so they don't blow up. But as with anything with valves, as it's used and age, the valve will become less reliable. I have no idea if there exist pressure cookers where it's possible to service the valve, but it's one of those thing where they recommend replacing the whole appliance after X amount of time to ensure it's safe to use.

So interesting fact KFC chicken is pressure fried! If I forget to defrost roasts or chicken, I can pressure cook them when they are frozen and just add 30 min or so to the over all cook time. I love my Ninja Foodi. Oh I use a long handled wooden spoon to release pressure, it doesn't get as hot as metal tongs.

Stick those ribs under the grill on your stove for a few minutes to get some caramelization and take them up to 11.

yeah that release valve is very urgent on high pressure mode, I know you're not meant to but I drape a thin tea towel over to prevent the cabinets above getting dripping wet once I release, doing a lot of pasta it'll always be violent bit it doesn't half do a good boiled gammon and it heats up a lot quicker than the hob on saute mode

I've been using a pressure cooker sort of like yours for about 5 years. I saute, slow cook and pressure cook in it but I find my rice cooker is better for me for rice. But I don't usually make risotto so maybe I'll try my pressure cooker for that. Great video!

The absolute best thing in the pressure cooker is beef casserole. You can use a cheaper cut of beef, I brown it in a frypan, carrots, sliced mushrooms, some flavourings (mixed herbs, garlic, etc) red wine and stock (stock cube stock is fine) and pressure cook on high pressure for 40 mins. VERY tender. Also good, lamb shanks. The important thing is there must be at least a cup of liquid in there. I wouldn't have thought of making risotto or cake, but I am not on the youtube.

These are basically pressure cookers with a modern twist. Since pressure is directly proportional to temperature, by monitoring the temperature of the cooking vessel, these can maintain pressure accurately without having to constantly bleed steam out a weighted valve like the old style ones do. These are far safer because unlike the old style, you don't have to worry about the steam release getting blocked by a piece of whatever you're cooking and turning it into a bomb. My favorite recipe is chicken soup. Literally just dump in like 4 chicken breasts (frozen or thawed), a couple chopped onions, a 1lb back of baby carrots, an equal amount of sliced up celery and some pototoes cut into 1-2 inch chunks (or just halved if they are small). fill to cover with chicken stock, add spices, herbs and such, and pressure cook on high for 30 mins. It will actually take an hour or so and then you can shred the chicken with some tongs and enjoy some really good soup.

@@mrbarrylewis Yep, also one of the ways to release the pressure on a cooker like this is to just let it sit until it gets down near room temperature because the pressure will naturally reduce back down and you don't have to worry about venting all the high pressure steam. The old style ones on the hob could easily turn into a bomb, though, which is why they're terrifying.

@@anndownsouth5070 Yeah, the old school ones you have to either wait, use the valve (if it has one), or do something like run cold water over it or put it into an ice bath to cool it down and reduce the pressure. People also would sometimes not fully lock the lid and when it got high enough pressure... BOOM!

LENTILS! Pressure cookers are AMAZING for doing lentils and beans! Also look up "steak potatoes and onions". Short stack is you layer onions, potatoes and stew beef in a pressure cooker with salt and pepper, no liquid, and cook for ~45 on high sealing. It's a super simple comfort food. If you're feeling rich you can add some carrots.

something often overlooked, that pot is non stick and has high sides so whilst saute-ing, you can rotate it with your bare hands touching the top and the high sides mean you don't get grease or sauces splattering over your hob

Barry starts calling it a dump cooker and proceeds to put a suspiciously brown substance into the now-called dump cooker lol I couldn't help but laugh, thanks Barry I needed that laugh this morning it made my day. Oh, and I have a Crock-Pot brand multi-cooker/pressure cooker and it is great, they come in 3 or 4 different sizes which is great if you do a lot of cooking large items or amounts of food or a small amount of food you can buy the size that works for you.
