Note from Colleen: I have another new favorite recipe to make in the Instant Pot – our Yummy Garlic Potatoes! What I love most about cooking in the Instant Pot is that I can put everything in and don’t have to keep a watchful eye on it while it’s cooking. (Just ask anyone in my family, I’m notorious for boiling things over on the stove!)
Ingredients:
8 medium red potatoes, quartered
5 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon salt, divided
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Put about an inch of water in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Place the potatoes, garlic, and salt in the water. Secure the lid and turn the valve to the “sealing” position. Select the “manual” setting and set the time to 12 minutes using the plus and minus buttons.
When using an Instant Pot, it does take a few minutes to heat up before the actual time starts counting down. The heating up and cooking combined takes approximately 30 minutes. It takes a little time, but you don’t have to worry about water boiling over. Use the quick release method by carefully moving the valve to the “venting” position using a long handled spoon.
Drain the potatoes, and add the butter, cream, and salt before mashing. Last, stir in the cheese and serve. Yummy!
