Instant Pot Duo – A programmable electric pressure cooker
I love funky kitchen gadgets especially if they save me time.
My most recent acquisition is the Instant Pot Duo a shining, modern, sleek Electric Cooker- the 3rd generation Instant Pot with many new features.
Its new slimmer body design has lid holders for both left- and right- handed users and the stainless steel main cooking pot is nice and large and has a thick bottom. It also has a pot lifter and a couple of spatulas and a cup measure for rice.
It’ s a 7-in-1 Multi-Functional Power Cooker and can proudly boast that it is
- an Automatic Pressure Cooker with two pressure settings.
- can Sauté directly in the cooking pot,
- a Slow Cooker,
- a Rice Cooker,
- a Pressure and non-Pressure Steamer,
- a Porridge Maker,
- a Food Warmer and
- a Yogurt Maker.
I tried cooking a few things with this!
Mung Bean Chilli– It was really easy to cook this and converted a long drawn job into a matter of minutes.
I also tried making QUICK PRAWNS AND PEAS PULAO/ PILAF/ PILAU
Why I like this pressure cooker.
1. Safety – The pressure cooker is extremely safe to use and has two different pressure releases- a natural release and a quick release.
2. Looks- it is very classy, sleek and stylish, not like any boring old pressure cooker.
3. Noise – It is really quiet & makes very little noise while cooking, no startling noises at all.
4. Simplicity of Use: The control panel display is larger & features a clearer layout. It has 14 easy to use – preset smart programs for cooking. You could also choose the Manual option, should you wish to cook manually.
5. Convenience- it is quite the fill it- shut it- forget it kinds. It will do everything on its own.
6. Cleaning- is extremely easy.
The biggest advantage is that it saves time.
So why not get yourself or your loved one a wonderful gift !
