Savory Steelcut Oats

I've always felt that we make recipes that we say we'll cook again and then we never do because we forget. I'm starting this new blog to record what kinds of things we cook at home. Hopefully this will help us cook more tasty food at home! The first post is this savory steel cut oats. We got an Instant Pot and even though the directions say not to cook oatmeal in it, there are tons of recipes online for it. The recipe I used was from the Kitchn. I cooked it under pressure for 12 minutes and let it cool down on its own (natural release) for 20 minutes. The oats looked kind of soupy at first, but after stirring it looked perfect. The texture was nutty and creamy. Here's the final product, topped with a fried egg and some feta. It could use some more color (like sriracha!) but this bowl was for my son.

Colombian chicken stew

Tonight's dinner was Colombian chicken stew after a recipe by J. Kenji Lopez-Alt. Somehow it didn't come out as brown as his recipe but it still was delicious. Potatoes simmered in the fat of chicken legs? Delish!  I was a little chicken to make it without any liquid on the bottom. I put half a cup of water to make myself feel better. I might have skipped it though because when I opened it, the pot was almost full of the cooking liquid that had come out of the veggies and chicken! Next time it could use some spices. Maybe curry? Maybe coconut milk?  Total time was actually probably a little more than an hour since it took almost half an hour for the pot to come to pressure.

Ground beef coconut curry and spinach, from the Indian Instant Pot cookbook . It came out delicious--rich, spicy, full of veggies. I tried to sell it to the family like an Indian beef luau. My son and wife enjoyed it, but my daughter (who loves beef luau) did not buy this comparison. She ate leftover beef luau from last weekend.
