Recipes for literal no-sauté, dump all in, set and forget weeknight dinners (Asian based recipes).

Firstly sorry if this has been asked a bazillion times but I truly need tried and true recipes where there is no searing, no sauté, no huge amounts of chopping (chopping bits of onion, garlic, carrots etc are OK). Literally dump all in, frozen meats and all. Preferably Asian based but all are welcome.

I'm struggling with energy levels post work and these are just for those days where I am truly wiped out but can't afford takeout.

Cannot get rid of the geen/gray ring on hard boiled eggs :(

Fellow instapoters! Please bestow me with your wise instapot hard boiled egg cooking wisdom :).

I live at altitude (5,500) and recently been trying hard boiled eggs in the magic pot. 1 cup water, eggs on the trivet. I've tried the 7-5-5 (7 mins high pressure, 5 mins NR, 5 mins ice bath), 6-5-5, and now 5-5-5 method and each time, still get the dreaded green ring. My ice bath is full of ice and very cold. My understanding is that the eggs are too hot and not being cooled fast enough? Should I decrease the NR time from 5 down to 4 perhaps?

When I do it the old school way on the stove, I just do 10 mins at boiling and straight to the ice bath and they are perfect. But in the instapot, can't seem to crack the code. What's the secret?

Does anybody here have the Instant Pot Oven (Vortex ClearCook Airfryer ?)

1 Upvotes

Hello everybody,

A while ago I saw somebody mentioning an Instant Pot oven, when I try to find it here in the Netherlands the only thing that looks like a traditional oven is the Vortex ClearCook Airfryer.

Does anybody here have this model (or maybe another model oven)? And if so, could you maybe tell me how big of an oven tray would fit in this model? Like a 'standard' glass (or ceramic) oven tray you would use in a traditional oven if you know what I mean?

Thank you in advance! :)
