Multi-Cooker-Friendly Recipe Instructions
- 1
Stir potatoes with the melted butter, then sprinkle with ranch seasoning mix. Toss well to coat evenly.
- 2
With butter, grease the bottom and lower sides of the inner pot in your multi-cooker, then add potatoes and 1 cup water, chicken broth or vegetable broth. Turn on the multi-cooker, secure the lid, and set pressure valve to “sealing.”
- 3
Select “manual” or “pressure cook,” and cook on high-pressure for 3 minutes. Select “cancel” to turn off the machine. Allow the pressure valve to natural pressure release for at least 5 minutes, then quick-release the pressure by turning the seal to “venting.”
- 4
Remove the lid, stir in the cream, sour cream and cheese, then close the lid again. Switch multi-cooker to sauté mode. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cheese is melted and the mixture is warmed through.
- 5
Garnish with parsley or dill if desired, and serve warm.
