CORN ON COB INSTAPOT

 Most of the recipes on line call for a cup of water and 2 minutes cooking time with quick release.

The first manual calls for 3-4 cooking time.

I read that it depends on the model.

I'm going with 3 minutes.  There was no recipe guide with the new pot.

Turn the pot on and set the time, then hit start.

Corn was good. 4 would be too much.

7/10/23

I found it hard to get the thing to heat up, but it went well, and 3 minutes for 4 ears was just fine.

I set 5 minutes this time.  I had quite a few ears.

I cooked it to go with the lobster.


aug 4

Did four ears for 3 minutes and let it set 1 minute more.  tasted fine.

CHICKEN TANDORI INSTAPOT

 Browned four thighs.

I put four thighs in yogurt and tandori spice and marinated in the refrigerator overnight.  

I used the rack with the handles folded down for a bit more distance from the bottom.

I used the poultry setting for just five minutes.

I used the rack and a bit of water (1/4 cup)  to protect from burning the yogurt on the bottom.  I thought about using some parchment paper in the bottom, but this time did not.

I also thought about adding frozen peas or frozen green beans.  Not this time.

They came out fine, but were very moist and unlike tandori in the oven.  Elizabeth liked them.  I liked them, but I want the real Indian tandori, so perhaps an Indian restaurant is in the near future.
