It sautes too and steams (things like Christmas pudding).<br />I do use mine quite a lot for larger amounts; it's not much use for single portion stuff, but if you like batch cooking, it is great.<br />I can't know whether it would suit you, of course, but I can say I'm really glad I bought one.<br />xx<br />Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16116524003944939298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5648310406783744033.post-4588163632481775062019-04-15T23:27:22.444+01:002019-04-15T23:27:22.444+01:00I didn't know you could use an instant pot as ...I didn't know you could use an instant pot as a slow cooker also.
