    This would go down well in my house, we all eat everything. We love trying new foods, when my daughter was 2 I have a photo of her fast asleep in her high chair covered in home made spaghetti bolognese, so funny, she was still holding her spoon, she is Jens age now, nice memory. Love your channel, you are both such a hive of information and I love the banter. Thanks girls.

    This looks amazing, and I can hardly wait to try it! I think the wrong recipe is in the notes below the video. Thanks, girls!

    I love your series and have only recently started to watch them. I've been using pressure cookers for a long time. From the old manual ones [shudders] to the electronic ones. Currently I have a 6L electric pressure multi-cooker (sautee, steam, rice, slow cook, pressure cook). I now don't need a 6Ltr cooker. And I want to be able to bake/roast etc, just like the instant cook pots. My question is ... Instapot's web site is so confusing. Can you tell me about the smaller versions please? What they're called and if they're about 3 Litres? American imperial measures are very strange to me. I have no idea what a quart is (sorry).

      Thanks for watching! 3 quarts is 2.839 liters so about the same. Most recipes are created for 6-quart pressure cookers, so you may want to halve recipes for a 3 quart (liter).
