I like my mashed potatoes somewhat chunky but you can also use a hand mixer if you prefer yours to be really smooth. I like the skins on the potatoes, but you can also take them off. 

If you prefer BBQ sauce instead of Ketchup, you can make the switch with that. 

This meal is always a hit for our family and I especially love that is is prepared and cooked in one pot as well dinner coming together faster.

  3. Do you not have to add water for the potatoes to cook? I have a different brand pressure cooker and it generally requires water to cook potatoes.

  8. As the name suggests, it is a pot that is built for fast and flexible cooking. Not only this but it is a multi-functional pressure cooker that will replace 8-10 other kitchen appliances as well, saving you time and money so check Best Instant Pot for you.

  9. These terms don't refer to a dinette set, but rather to a completely different way of organizing a kitchen by using a few specially designed pieces of furniture instead of installing continuous lines of cabinetry and countertops. instant pot quick release

  10. During Deepawali festival time, approximately 100 thousand rupees per month is spent on pottery. Village pottery is sold in smaller societies of India, and with the help of these markets, pottery has become very popular.kids pottery wheel

  11. Idk if someone else has noticed yet. But, when you print off this recipe it fails to mention the cup of water you pour of the potatoes. I made it the first time off my phone and it was great and mentioned the water. Left the print out for my husband and the instant pot kept stopping and saying there was a burn alert bc the print out doesn't list the water as an ingredient or in the directions. Made with the water, it's amazing!

  13. I clicked on the "printable recipe here" link and followed it perfectly. I was wondering why my instant pot wasn't pressurized and realized that you always need liquid added. For some reason that printable version does not show the full ingredients/directions hence why I didn't add the water.
