Description

This Instant Pot potato salad is a breeze to make; this method cooks the potatoes and eggs perfectly, and the shells slip right off of the eggs.

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups water
2 pounds red potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
3 large eggs
2 stalks celery, chopped
1/4 cup mayonnaise
2 green onions, chopped
3 tablespoons yellow mustard
1 tablespoon dill pickle relish
1 teaspoon paprika
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1 Pour water into the pot of a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as an Instant Pot) and place a steamer basket inside. Place potatoes in the steamer basket. Arrange eggs on top of the potatoes.
2 Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 4 minutes. Allow 15 minutes for pressure to build.
3 Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Use tongs to transfer eggs to an ice bath and let cool for 10 minutes.
4 Meanwhile, combine celery, mayonnaise, green onion, mustard, relish, and paprika in a large bowl. Stir until evenly combined.
5 Peel and chop the eggs. Stir eggs and potatoes into the dressing. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
