How dumb can one get. I was cooking salmon in foil packets. I put it in the Instant Pot which worked very well. However, had I cooked it in the oven I wouldn't have had a pot to wash up. Duuh. It was fine, but really.
My two good friends, ladydog and Sue came today and we went to the Alzheimer Society to see what they had to say. Knew a lot of it, but not, by any means all. Have now to digest what was said.
I copied a recipe for Instant Pot Lamb Chops but after the above fiasco, I am wondering if I am stupid and should stick to broiling like I used to. Although the recipe I have sounds pretty good. I'm not sure how many this is for as I have no idea how many chops 2 lb comes to. Salt seems a tad heavy too.
IP Lamb Chop
2 Tbs olive oil, split
1 yellow onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 large carrots, peeled and chopped
2 Tbs rosemary, fresh
2 lb Lamb Loin Chops
2 Tbs of jalapeno based hot sauce
¼ cup white wine
1 ¼ cup beef stock
1 Tbs cornstarch
¼ cup water
Salt and Pepper (I used about 3 tbs salt and 1 tbs pepper
1. Put Instant Pot onto Sauté, put in 1 ½ tbs olive oil, let it come to Hot, add in lamb that has been salted and peppered. Sear on one side for about 2 minutes, flip, saute for another 2 minute. Take out.
2. Add onions, saute for 1 minute, add garlic, saute for another minute. Take off of saute, deglaze with white wine.
3. Place the carrots, the rest of the olive oil, a pinch of salt, pepper, and rosemary, into foil and wrap securely.
4. Add stock, hot sauce, salt, and pepper in with the onions and give a good stir.
5. Place carrots on top of the onions, trivet on top of carrots, and meat on top of the trivet. Set on High Pressure for 5 minutes for medium or 8 minutes for well. Let natural release for 15 minutes.
6. Take meat out and let rest. Stir carrots in with the onions. Mix cornstarch in with water and place in with onion mixture. Put on saute for about 5 minutes or until thick.
7. Taste gravy and adjust seasoning.
