instant pot

Instant Pot Baked Chicken with Vegetables is a recipe you can easily prepare for a big party. The Instant Pot makes the chicken soft and juicy, while broiling the chicken gives it a nice brown color. The juices from the chicken that accumulate in the Instant Pot is also used to make some flavorful gravy.

I've made beef shanks braised with red wine, and they are good, but I'm Filipino and I miss Filipino food sometimes. So, when I got my fish sauce here in Madrid, I was so excited to start cooking Bulalo, a traditional Filipino dish made of beef shanks. Since beef shanks are a little bit expensive here, I added some regular cuts of lean beef to make the dish more economical. Cooked in the Instant Pot, it is amazing!

When you're living in a foreign country, you can't help but miss comfort food from your home country. For me, as a Filipino, I have several comfort foods, such as adobo and arroz caldo. Arroz caldo is a Filipino dish made primarily of chicken, rice, broth, and ginger (among other things), but the combination of all these simple ingredients makes it such a flavorful dish. To make arroz caldo, you probably already have most things in your refrigerator or pantry already. However, if you're not Asian, you might not have fish sauce.
