Instant Pot short ribs

https://www.pressurecookrecipes.com/instant-pot-short-ribs/

These were pretty good. Needed 10 minutes on top of the initial 45 minutes for desired tenderness. Didn't have cornstarch so skipped that.

Whole roast duck with orange sauce




 https://www.wenthere8this.com/crispy-roasted-duck/

- Didn't follow the foil instructions at the start of roasting, by accident. Maybe it would have helped.

- Roasted for 30 min + 10 min + 10 min and probably landed at medium-well breast temperatures. Could have cooked for less time (or with more foil).

- Should buy some five spice powder to simplify things. Wished I had added more cinnamon to my five-spice approximation.

- Borrowed some sherry in lieu of Shaoxing wine. Seemed fine.

Tortilla Espanola

Tuna Poke

 We made tuna poke loosely based on this recipe (no chili sauce or onions):

We got the tuna from water2table.com.  It was delish.

Chicken Chili

We tried to adopt this one for the Instant pot and had to add 3-4 cups of water to get it to seal.  The result was subpar.  Maybe use the slow cooker function next time?
