Rice

Rice is a popular side dish for a variety of meals. Rice not only contains complex carbohydrates, which keep you feeling full for longer, but also valuable B vitamins. Of course, rice can also be cooked perfectly in a pressure cooker. To do this, mix the desired amount of rice with water in a 1:1 ratio in an unperforated insert. Fill the pressure cooker with a little water up to the “Min” mark, place the trivet and insert in the pressure cooker, and bring to a boil on the highest heat setting. As soon as the yellow ring appears, the cooking time of 5-8 minutes begins on cooking level 3, depending on the desired firmness. Rice is also ideal for layered cooking in a pressure cooker.

Red cabbage and kale

Red cabbage and kale are particularly popular (festive) vegetables during the Christmas season due to their wintery flavor, and they are very healthy thanks to their high vitamin C, iron, and calcium content. To ensure that these nutrients are preserved as much as possible during cooking and to save time, we recommend preparing them in a pressure cooker. To do this, cut the red cabbage into fine strips and fry it with the lid open. Season to taste. Add a little red wine and vinegar to the red cabbage up to the “Min” mark inside the pot, close the pressure cooker, and set the stove to the highest setting. As soon as the yellow ring appears, the cooking time of 4-6 minutes on cooking level 3 begins. Lightly sauté the kale in the pressure cooker. Season with salt and pepper. Then fill the pressure cooker with water up to the “min” mark. Cook the contents on setting 3 for 8-10 minutes on the highest heat setting from when the yellow ring appears.

Goulash

Goulash is a meat dish that originated in Hungary. In Germany, it is usually made with beef and served with noodles or potatoes. It is cooked for several hours. To save time, it is worth preparing the goulash in a pressure cooker. To prepare the goulash, fry the desired amount of meat, onions, and peppers in a pressure cooker. Then fill the pressure cooker with a mixture of red wine and beef broth (at least 300 ml). Season to taste or according to the recipe. Set the stove to the highest setting. As soon as the yellow ring appears, the cooking time of 20-25 minutes begins on cooking level 3.

Potatoes

In Germany, potatoes are one of the most important staple foods. They are characterized by their diversity in taste, appearance, and preparation. In addition, potatoes not only contain numerous minerals such as vitamin C, sodium, iron, and calcium, but also a high proportion of carbohydrates, which means that potatoes keep you feeling full for a long time. Potatoes can be cooked in conventional pots, but they are also ideal for preparation in a pressure cooker. To do this, place the peeled potatoes, cut into equal-sized pieces, in the insert and salt to taste. Place the trivet and insert in the pressure cooker. Fill the pressure cooker with water until it reaches the “min” mark. Close the pressure cooker and set the stove to the highest setting. When the yellow ring appears, the cooking time of 6-8 minutes on cooking level 3 begins, depending on the size of the potato pieces. For jacket potatoes, the cooking time is 8-12 minutes. Another advantage: potatoes are great for multi-level cooking in a pressure cooker.

Beetroot

Beetroot purifies the blood, lowers blood pressure, and has anti-inflammatory properties. Combined with its high vitamin B, potassium, and iron content, it is considered a true superfood. This makes it all the more important that the nutrients are retained during the cooking process instead of being washed out. Cooking them in a pressure cooker is particularly beneficial in this regard. To prepare, peel the beetroot and place it in the perforated insert of the pressure cooker. Place the attachment with the tripod in the pot and fill with water up to the “Min” mark. Close the pressure cooker and cook on the highest heat setting. As soon as the yellow ring appears, the cooking time begins. Depending on the size of the beetroot, the cooking time is between 20 and 25 minutes on cooking level 2.

Roast beef

Beef roast is a popular dish for Sundays or holidays in Germany. Combined with potatoes, salad, or pasta, it is ideal as a main course. However, it takes a long time to prepare, which is why it is worth using a pressure cooker. Season and prepare the roast beef as usual. Finely chop all the other ingredients, such as onions and garlic, and fry them together with the meat in the pressure cooker. Then deglaze the roast beef with meat stock and red wine. Bring the pressure cooker to a boil on the highest heat setting. As soon as the yellow ring appears on the cooking crown, the cooking time of 30-40 minutes (500g meat) begins on cooking level 3.
