Notes
Detailed notes in the post. If you haven’t read the post before jumping to recipe, do go back and read so you don’t miss out the details.Burn message can appear if you do not follow the instructions as detailed in this recipe. For example, the pasta sauce if stirred in can cause burn error as the instant pot needs thin liquid at the bottom to come to pressure. When sauce is stirred in, there's no thin liquid for the IP to work with.In the incident that you do get burn message, If the instant pot has come to pressure, turn it off and leave as it is (don't depressurise pot) for 10 minutes. The retained pressure will cook the food. After 10 minutes you can then depressurise and open the pot.If pot hasn't come to pressure before burn message, turn off the IP, quick release pressure, open the lid and scrape any stuck bits off the bottom of the pot. Finish off cooking with the saute or slow cook but
