These days, an Instant Pot is as common a kitchen appliance as a slow cooker—but it can do so much more. The multi-cooker does indeed master slow-cooked classics, as shown in these Instant Pot recipes for red wine-bolstered beef stew and short ribs with mashed potatoes. It’s also a tremendous timesaver when you use the pressure cooker setting for recipes like cookbook author Andrea Nguyen’s Leftover Roast Turkey and Chinese Egg Noodle Soup, or her Instant Pot Viet Beef Stew with Star Anise and Lemongrass, Ann Taylor Pittman’s Instant Pot Beef Ragù with Pappardelle, or even an ultra-quick and grill-free baba ganoush. Read on for more ways to coax the most from your Instant Pot.
