Long before the Instant Pot hit Australian shores, we’d purchased ours through Amazon (before it turned into Amazon AU!) based on all the hype that we’d been hearing from the US. To this day, it’s been our most used kitchen appliance and has been a life changer for us!
We have the 6L Instant Pot and I use it a few times a week. I love how there’s minimal mess, you can set and forget, there’s a safe pressure release, and cook deeply flavorful meals that would otherwise take a very long time. There are also some dishes such as Chicken Congee that I’ve never been able to cook in a normal pot but turns out perfectly in the Instant Pot.
Below are some of my favourite Instant Pot recipes. The great thing about cooking is that these are all adjustable according to your own tastes.
