Ingredients
- 6 (1 3/4 lb, 784g) medium beets (7.5” circumference)
- 1 cup (250ml) cold water
Instructions
- Prepare Beets: Rub and wash the beets under cold running tap water. If your beets come with greens & stems, trim them off and save them for another dish (stir-frying with garlic tastes great). Trim off & discard the roots.
- Pressure Cook Beets: Pour 1 cup (250ml) cold tap water in the pressure cooker. Place a trivet or steamer basket in the Instant Pot, then place 6 medium beets (784g, 7.5” circumference) on the trivet. Close the lid and cook at High Pressure for 24 minutes (firm and a little crunchy) - 28 minutes (soft with some chew) + Quick Release (immediately release the pressure by turning the venting knob to venting position). Carefully open the lid.*Pro Tip 1: Adjust the cooking time according to your beets' size using the time chart below.Beets Pressure Cooking Time Chart:Pressure Cooking Method: High Pressure, then Quick ReleaseBeets Circumference: Texture Preference (Firm & a little crunchy - Soft with some chew)5 inches: 11 - 15 minutes5.5 inches: 14 - 18 minutes6 inches: 17 - 21 minutes6.5 inches: 18 - 23 minutes7 inches: 20 - 25 minutes7.5 inches: 24 - 28 minutes8 inches: 27 - 31 minutes8.5 inches: 30 - 34 minutes9 inches: 32 - 36 minutes
