Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients except for the fresh basil in an 8 quart Instant Pot and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes.
  2. Quick release pressure and stir in the basil.
  3. Serve with rice if desired. I enjoy adding 2 cups to 3 cups of cooked rice into the stew prior to serving. Enjoy!

    Loved it. I added some boneless skinless chicken breast sauteed first in the instant pot before adding veggies.

    Watery but just use a slotted spoon and you’re good. Read that it was bland to some people so I added lots of pepper and garlic powder and its good! I’ll be making it again.

    Mixed feelings as it was bland and watery but very tasty. If anything the actual complaint would be that half the veggies disintegrate and youre left with stiff bland potatoes.

    Taste is there… needs work.

    My family really enjoyed this. My 4 year old finished his bowl!! I read that some people felt it was bland and too watery, so I added a lot of Lawry’s seasoning salt before cooking and omitted the water. I will definitely make this again.

    Needs finishing…try adding this herb seasoning after cooking…and serve over rice.
    2 tbsp fresh basil
    2 tbsp fresh parsely
    1 tsp minced garlic (or to taste)
    2 tsp fresh thyme
    Salt and pepper
    4 tbsp olive oil

    I changed the recipe a little by sauteing onions abd garlic with oregano and pepper first. Omitting the water all together and then sauteing the rest of the vegetables first.
    I only used 3 min of pressure cooking and I’m going to try just one min nect time.
    I also didnt use the potatoes

    So, I tried using the low pressure setting instead of the high and the vegetables come out amazingly well! Not mushy or watery at all anymore!
    The high pressure is too much for vegetables

    Low pressure is great for delicate foods.

    It may be quicker to use high pressure but sometime lower and a little longer is better.

    I don’t believe recipe is written correctly. 5 minutes prep time? Recipe doesn’t say to cut veggies, which obviously must be done. So 5 minute prep time can’t possibly be correct. Some guidance on how/what size to cut veggies would be helpful.

    What causes end result to be watery? What can be done to lessen amount of this water?
