Replace multiple kitchen gadgets and do it all with 1 smart cooker that has 10 different functions – With the Instant Pot® Pro Plus, you can use it as a pressure cooker, slow cooker, rice cooker, steamer, sauté pan, yogurt maker, warmer, canning, sous vide, and food warmer. The removable cooking tray inside the basket has a tendency to fall out when you’re serving food, although this also means it's easy to remove and clean between uses. Performance

The brown rice pre-set cooks for 30 minutes on high pressure, add to that a four and a half minute preheat and the total cook time was around 35 minutes. This is about 10 minutes longer than it usually takes me to cook on the hob, but this didn’t bother me because I could walk away and do other things without having to keep an eye on it. The Duo does everything you can do with 7 other appliances: pressure cooker, saute pan, steamer, slow cooker, rice cooker, food warmer, and yoghurt maker. Clear the clutter from your counter and do it all with just one tool. The air fryer provides an audible and visual alert once it’s pre-heated and it’s time to put the food in the basket, and another alert at the half-way point, so that you can turn or shake food as required to ensure it's evenly browned.And if the Vortex’s many talents described above aren’t enough, it makes heating and cooking many processed foods super-easy, too – everything from spring rolls to leftover chips, cheese toasties, roti and arancini. While an air fryer can’t cook foods typically drenched in batter that would usually be deep fried, it works a treat with foods that are high in oil content but aren’t wet on the outside. The only fault we could find with the Vortex is that the settings for roasting and baking are restricted to very specific items – don’t expect to bake a wide range of items here. A roasted butternut squash came out beautifully crisp after half an hour, but cinnamon rolls cooked on the Bake setting were far too crisp. There are cooking tips available for the Vortex Air Fryer online and via Instant's recipe app, but we'd have like to see more guidelines on baking and roasting times included with the appliance itself. No matter how large your family or how big your needs are, the Duo comes in the right size for you. When preparing side dishes or cooking for 1 or 2 people, the 3L mini is the Duo for you. For families up to 5, go for the 5.7L (our most popular model!), and for larger families, parties, or full-week meal prep, the big 8L is the smart choice.

Say goodbye to multiple kitchen appliances and do it all in one compact pot – pressure cooker, saute pan, steamer, slow cooker, rice cooker, food warmer, and yoghurt makerThe appliance's internal cavity holds a six-quart steel pot that sits on a heating element and is removable for cleaning. The pot has dedicated side handles that nest into the exterior ones; it's much easier to grip and move this inner steel pot than the handle-less pots that many other models use. Sealed Cooking Chamber: It has a sealed design that encapsulates all your food's aroma inside the pot while reducing heat and noise. The best-selling Instant Pot Duo multicooker not only replaces 7 appliances but also speeds cooking by 2-6 times and saves up to 70% of the energy used in traditional cooking methods.

After I clamped the lid on, I set the Instant Pot to pressure cook for an hour and 30 minutes and then to vent with natural venting. Again, it took about 20 minutes to reach the correct temperature and pressure, then another 90 minutes to cook. Naturally venting took another 20 minutes or so; I let the air leak out slowly through the valve instead of fully opening it. A soft mechanical pop indicated that the process was complete. The chili turned out just as well as the stew, and the result was comparable with a non-smart Instant Pot and a slow cooker that requires a longer cooking time.

I set the pot to 160 degrees, filled it with water up to the halfway line, and closed the lid. It took over half an hour to heat up to the correct temperature, during which I seasoned the thighs and sealed them in a freezer bag. The appliance dinged and sent my phone a notification when it hit the correct temperature. At this point, I put the sealed turkey legs in the water bath and secured the lid. The Instant Pot then started a six-hour timer. The legs came out fully cooked and moist. Cooking them at 150 degrees over a much longer period of time would have probably made them even more tender, but I was pleased with the results, so I consider the sous vide experiment a success.
