Amazon Basics Stainless Steel Pressure Cooker, 4 Litre, Silver

Product Information

It has eight preset programmes, each perfect for a specific food type, be it rice or meat or soup, as well as a handy timer so you can set it to finish cooking just as you arrive home. HEALTHIER MEALS - Steam builds up inside the airtight pan, creating pressure that cooks ingredients whilst locking in nutrients for healthier meals. A simple pressure indicator valve lets you know when optimum cooking pressure has been reached, whilst the easy to use pressure release setting allows the pressure to be adjusted to suit what food is being cooked.

We’ve seen consistent, excellent results from cooking with Pressure Cookers, and we know that you will too. They're great for busy cooks since you can have a full meal on the table in under an hour with minimal prep work. Searing ingredients can be done directly in the cooker, which is helpful, and the food produced on the test was, after a few adjustments, delicious and ready to serve with no more reduction needed. While they are invaluable when it comes to braising, stewing and transforming tough cuts of meat, and cooking ingredients like dried pulses from scratch, pressure cookers are less successful with delicate foods like fish or green veg, as they use such a high heat.We also rated how quickly they came up to pressure and whether they could release pressure both quickly and naturally.

The large 4L pan capacity is perfect for cooking 4-5 portions of food for all the family and can easily accommodate perfect cooking of any large meat joint, whilst the bonded steel base ensures even heat distribution for perfect cooking.

The twist lid makes it easy to open and close so you never have to worry about the lid being properly aligned. The cooker performed as well as many of the more expensive models, and at 6-litres in size, it has a manageable footprint and is a good size for the average family. The pros in the Good Housekeeping Institute Kitchen Appliances and Innovation Lab have tested and evaluated more than 40 pressure cookers and multi-cookers with pressure-cooking functionality over the years. Whether pressure cooked or slow cooked, stew meat came out melt-in-your-mouth tender and vegetables held their shape in our tests. While it may seem like an expensive choice initially, it is multi-purpose, so it doesn’t just pressure cook - it also slow cooks, steams, roasts, bakes and sautés - making it a fantastic all-rounder that saves you needing lots of different pans or devices.
