Step 1

Place 1 cup cold water in the inner pot of pressure cooker pan and place trivet in instant pot. Note: Use 1.5 cups of cold water in an 8-quart Instant Pot.

Step 2

Scrub potatoes well and then pierce potatoes 5-6 times with a fork to allow pressure to release while cooking.

Step 3

Add potatoes carefully on trivet (stacking on top of each other if needed). Place lid on instant pot and seal the valve.

Step 4

Hit the manual or pressure cook button and be sure HIGH pressure is selected. Adjust cook time to 12 minutes for medium potatoes, 16 for average/larger potatoes, and 22 minutes for really large potatoes. See notes on sizes.

Step 5

Once cook time has elapsed, allow pressure to naturally release for at least 10 minutes before doing a quick release of pressure. Remove potatoes from Instant Pot and serve up with whatever toppings you like.
