There are few foods more versatile than potatoes. Consider the many ways in which these spuds can be served up for breakfast, lunch, and dinner — all even on the same day, if the craving really hits you hard. And while some potato dishes are certainly complex and time-consuming, it doesn’t have to take a lot of effort to turn a bag of raw potatoes into something delicious in a matter of minutes. That’s especially true if you have an Instant Pot. 

Ingredients

• 2 Tablespoons butter
• 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 pounds baby potatoes
• Salt to taste
• 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder

Optional Ingredients

• Chopped fresh parsley

Procedure

1. Turn the Instant Pot to the sauté mode and set for 12 minutes.
2. Place the butter and oil into the Instant Pot.
3. Add the potatoes and season with salt. Sauté for 12 minutes, tossing the potatoes frequently so that they brown on all sides.
4. After the sauté function ends, add the garlic powder and broth to the Instant Pot.
5. Place the lid on the Instant Pot, setting the valve to sealing. Turn the pressure cooker on high and set for 8 minutes.
6. After 8 minutes, do a quick release by moving the valve to venting and then removing the lid.
7. Place the potatoes in a serving dish and top with the chopped parsley if desired.
