I'd recommend just learning how to use the stove. IP is good for specialty stuff like cooking dry beans, making chicken stock, yogurt. But it's not a daily workhorse to me. The only "normal" cooking it does is faster braising and even that is questionable when you include time to reach and leave pressure.

If you don't know how to cook, start with roasting stuff in the oven or pan frying, both are a lot easier and with roasting you can make it so there's almost nothing to clean after. With the IP it's a pain to deal with the aftermath.

I use mine regularly. Don't have any recipes. Just throw shit in and set it and forget it

Baked Potatoes

>Stew
Almost anything goes in a stew. But note that some ingredients do not require much cooking, some will benefit from longer cooking, some will fall apart if they cook too long. Also sautee some of the stuff first. A good stew should contain:
-Some kind of meat
-Onions and spices
-Some kind of vegetables
-Some kind of filler carbs (unless you want to spend a lot of money on getting your carbs from vegetables, which is not a bad idea of course.)
For the last point, consider lentils, potatoes, maize, noodles. Remember what I said about ingredients falling apart, you will have to test that.
>Fried stuff
This one is a dry recipe. Fry potatoes or something like that. (It can do that with sauteeing, right?) Goes well with vegetables, meats, onions, eggs, cheese if its introduced after frying. Experiment a bit.

One main ingredient missing here is rice. You can try introducing them in stew, but it's tricky. Better keep it extra. Fried rice works, but you'll need to cook it first, then fry the rest of the stuff, then the rice.

is that matzo ball soup?

Btw my preferences (with normal cooking, not the instant pot - but I think it would suit it very well):
-Fried hash and onions, top up with lentils, curry seasoning, and a bit of peas
-Classic goulash (with either hash or real goulash meat), onions, bell and chili peppers, a bit of red wine. Can add some carrots. Eat with extra rice.
-Fried potatoes with bacon and onions. Not a full meal, needs some kind of vegetable and protein extra - fried eggs and vegetables for example.

I would recommend something like a Japanese curry. If you can use a knife to cut up vegetables and not yourself then you should be good with that.

Chicken and dumplings. The dumplings were shit thanks to whatever recipe I pulled up on google

After seeing >>17386514 we decided to try making Japanese curry.
Currently cooking it, we'll see how it goes.

What’s the point in this thread, don’t you know how to use google? There’s literally tens of thousands of recipes online. Like fuck, just think of something you enjoy and google how to make it in the instant pot.

instant pots are more work than you think. yes, in theory it's easy to set it and forget it, but you still have just as much prep work and cleaning required as regular cooking with the difference being it takes hours longer for your food to be done as if you'd just made simple meal using the stove. the only thing instant pots are useful for is cooking down roast cuts of meat into soft stews. aside from that, they're a meme

>a combination sous vide machine, rice cooker, slow cooker, pressure cooker, air fryer, steamer, yogurt maker, + more, all with intelligent temperature, time, and pressure controls is a meme because you need to clean no matter what.
congrats on being the dumbest shit i have read yet today. luckily for you its early.

B-b-b-b-b-u-t I don't know how to think for myself. Mommy has always made all my decisions

>>17388180
-It can do pressure cooking
-It doesn't burn the food
That already should save plenty of time and attention. I for one found them looking for energy-efficient cooking methods - concerning that point, is the pot insulated or not? That would save a lot of energy.
