    1. Pav Bhaji

    Pav Bhaji - Instant Pot & Stovetop

    Being from Mumbai, I take immense pleasure in saying that the most loved recipe on the blog is Mumbai Pav Bhaji. This is Mumbai street food at it’s best! A healthy and nutritious dish with loads of veggies, prepared as a one pot dish. If you have not tried or heard of this dish, it really is a must try!

    2. Mom's Chicken Curry

    Chicken Curry Instant Pot Pressure Cooker

    This is my mom’s authentic Chicken Curry recipe, converted to the instant pot. Added bonus are tips from mom to give that extra flavor kick. This chicken curry made in a onion-tomato gravy with the aroma of whole spices. Here is a wonderful comment from a follower – “This is one of the best chicken curry recipes I’ve eaten. It definitely taste better than the restaurant too! The instructions are also very easy to follow. I just got an instant pot and so happy to have found your site.“.

    3. Dal Tadka

    Dal Tadka / Dal Fry / Yellow Lentils Instant Pot Pressure Cooker 3

    Toor Dal Fry is the one of the most popular lentil made in India. In some homes, this is made everyday. Dal tadka is very quick to prepare and can be ready in minutes.  It is one of the easiest to make for a weeknight dinner. Make this along with pot-in-pot basmati rice for a complete meal!

    4. Chana Masala

    Instant Pot Chana Masala. Chole. Chickpeas

    Chole Masala is a signature North Indian dish that is enjoyed with bhatura, naan or rice. I love the convenience to make this complicated dish as a one-pot recipe in the instant pot. I am sure you will love it too!  Here is a great review from a follower, “Wonderful, Flavorful recipe. I have made it three times already and it is becoming a regular thing in my household!“.

    5. Green Moong Dal

    Wholesome Green Moong Dal is a delicious creamy lentil soup, that is so easy and quick to make in a pressure cooker. Very nutritious with lots of protein and perfect for a cold evening.

    6. Broccoli Cheddar Soup

    Broccoli Cheddar Soup Instant Pot 5

    A simple and delicious Broccoli Cheddar soup that can be ready in minutes. You might have had this soup at cafe’s and wondered how to make this creamy comforting soup. This is a simple recipe to make this soup in the comfort of your home in the amazing Instant Pot! You could very much call this a Panera Copycat Broccoli Cheddar soup.

    Here is a review that makes my time blogging and sharing recipes worth it – “I just made this soup….it is GREAT!! It’s 5 of us me, my husband and 3 boys were fighting over the leftovers. I will double next time!!!”

    7. Paneer Butter Masala

    Instant Pot Paneer Butter Masala topped with cilantro and cream with naan bread on the side

    This is another one of those recipes that is a game changer in the instant pot. Just add all the ingredients and come back to a flavorful gravy, that can be used to make many dishes. It is very versatile, so you can make a variety of dishes with it.

    8. Kala Chana Curry

    Punjabi Kala Chana or Black Chickpeas Curry made in Instant Pot. A homestyle mild spiced curry, best enjoyed with rice

    Kala Chana is a mildly spiced black chickpeas curry made in the instant pot or a stovetop pressure cooker. This is a simple everyday Punjabi curry, made in a onion-tomato gravy with ginger and garlic. Instant Pot Kala Chana is so easy to prepare and yet so delicious.

    9. Penne Pasta in Tomato Cream Sauce

    A simple and delicious penne pasta recipe that can be ready on the dinner table in 15 minutes. Loved by kids and adults, and my go to dish when I am short on time. “Just made this ! Soooo yummy! Kids finished all of it!! Thank you”, as said by one of the readers. I always love it when I hear that kids enjoyed the recipe, my daughter loves this one too.

    10. Rice Pudding (Kheer)

    Kheer Rice Pudding instant pot

    This recipe is my favorite. Why? Because it is a game-changer when made in the instant pot! Just dump in all the ingredients, set to Porridge mode and come back to perfectly cooked kheer. Traditionally made kheer on the stovetop would have taken an hour or more of active time to prepare.
