Equipment
- 1 Instant pot
- 1 Trivet
- 1 Aluminum foil
Ingredients
- 4-5 medium-sized russet potatoes
- 1 cup water
- sea salt
- olive oil spray
Instructions
- Verify that the Instant Pot's stainless steel insert is inside. Pour in one cup of cold water.
- Scrub and wash the potatoes. Each potato should have many fork pokes made across its surface.
- Incorporate the wire rack inside the insert. Place the potatoes in a rack.
- After placing the Instant Pot lid on, select the "sealing" position on the valve.
- Ensure that HIGH pressure cooking is selected on your IP. To set the timer for 14 minutes, press the "manual" button. Refer to the cooking time notes.
- The Instant Pot will begin to build pressure and beep. The timer will start in a few seconds when the valve opens, indicating that pressure was reached.
- The Instant Pot will beep a few times when it's finished. Allow it to relieve the pressure on its own.
- Open the lid carefully, keeping your face out of it. After removing the potatoes gently, arrange them on a dish.
- Garnish potatoes with butter, seasonings, cheddar, sour cream, parsley, or chives, according to your preference.
Notes
- Place roasted potatoes on a baking sheet (foil if desired, but not parchment since parchment paper cannot be broiler-safe).
- Coat potatoes in olive oil and Kosher salt.
- Place under oven broiler for 3-7 minutes until skins are brown and crisp. Be careful not to burn the potatoes.
