The long wait for local Instant Pot fans is finally over, it has landed on Singapore’s shores!
For those who haven’t tried it yet, Instant Pot is one pot that can do all this: Slow cooking, pressure cooking, sauté, browning, soups, and more. We jumped on the bandwagon and tried making a recipe using this hugely raved product, by making a beef rendang dish. As you can see in the video, it’s really easy to make it all happen in one pot!
We’d say an Instant Pot can be really helpful in simplifying cooking at home, especially for families with busy lifestyles. We reduced our Rendang cook time from 4-hour slow cooking to 45 mins of pressure cooking. It makes a great addition to any home kitchen!
Instant Pot is giving away free accessories with every online pre-order from now until 15 September, so for our interested viewers, don’t miss out!
