I've just picked up an instant pot plus (Model Link) for £50 off the back of the sales and a voucher from work and i'm looking for any recipes or suggestions any of you good folks use/have tried and tested.

Since i've been recently diagnosed as type 2 diabetic any low carb suggestions are welcome
 
I mainly use mine for doing what I used to use a slow cooker for, chicken/beef stews, curries, only much much faster.

Eg: Chicken stew. Skinless, boneless chicken thigh. Saute in Instant Pot add 200ml stock and deglaze.
Add casserole veg of choice I use 2 bags of pre prepped from supermarket to save time and microwave for 3 mins to start. (If doing beef no need to do this)
Pressure cook for 8-12 mins (Dependant on quantity) natural release.
I stir through a cornflour slurry after cooking to thicken slightly if required.

Also a family fave is rice pudding, although this uses a lot of sugar and cream!

90% of my use is stews. Usually make sure there is plenty of tatties in it so I just keep stirring after it is done so some tatty breaks down to thickens it up. Also use it for making meatloaf, wrapped in foil, cooked in the pot then crisped up in the air fryer. Also any fish portions wrapped in foil suspended above the veggies. I did attempt to make potato wedges in it, to be crisped in the air fryer with some cooking spray, but need to work on the method for that as they don't want to be overcooked in the pot.
