    Take Instant Pot cooking to the next level with a pot-in-pot technique – Wa. Post. 

    • “I was immediately sold on the possibility. After all, the Instant Pot’s greatest gift to home kitchens isn’t the speed; it’s the hands-off cooking. Multiply the number of dishes you can make this way at once, and the efficiency can’t be beat.”

    “This is next-level Instant Pot cookery — literally.”

    Washington Post

    With Vegan Richa, You Can Make Amazing Indian Food in an Instant Pot – Treehugger review 

    • “Vegan Richa’s recipe for Butter Chicken Sauce paired with the Baked Tofu was heavenly—and I’ve tried many versions, vegan and not, over the years. I couldn’t stop scooping it out of the pot, even as I was getting ready to serve my hungry kids. They loved it, too.”
    • “Whether you’re vegan or not, if you own an Instant Pot this is a cookbook worth ordering. Since getting my copy, I’ve used it multiple times a week because everything is just so easy and delicious.”

    Publishers weekly

    • ”For delicious meals that can be made in a pinch, Hingle is a wise and unwavering guide.
    • “To showcase how versatile it is, she presents a wide array of vegan dishes that includes Indian comfort food, crispy Mexican crunch wraps, and desserts, and arms readers with the techniques, substitutions, and cooking times to create them, no matter where one lives (readers living at higher altitudes will particularly appreciate the adjustments made to accommodate).”

      Richa, I am so completely in love with the Creamy Mushroom Soup, the Wild Rice Soup, and the Butter “Chicken” with Soy Curls. Probably a lot of other recipes as well. I’m tempted to buy your other book, too, but I have fallen in love with the Instant Pot and want to really concentrate on making everything in that book. Much love and health to you, Judy

      Hi, I just got the cookbook and it really looks great! I have made many of your online recipes and really enjoyed them! Tonight, I made the Dump and Done Wild Rice Soup and it turned out really awful and I wonder if there is an error on the recipe? It called for 3 oz or 96 grams of dried mushrooms – also said one cup – but the 96 grams was much more than one cup. I was not sure about this, but tend to trust weights more than measurements by cup, so put in 96 grams of dried mushrooms. The recipe turned out bad as the mushrooms had an overpowering earthy flavor that tasted like dirt. And the dried mushrooms were brand new from a good source, so that was not the problem. When I saw a video on Facebook about the recipe, it showed a much smaller amount of mushrooms used. So was the 3 oz/96 gram instruction correct? I do not think a cup of dried mushrooms would weigh that much, but I did not check this. Thanks so much! Susie

        Hi Susie, oh no . That is an error in the book and I’ve noted it to be corrected in the next printing. I’ll add the errors in a note on this page. The weight is wrong and that much mushroom would be too much indeed. You can freeze most of it and take portions of the soup and add more cooked rice and cream and cook down if you wish. That might save it. Or blend up some of it and add non dairy cream , some wine and italian herbs and simmer for a mushroom sauce.

(I typically really dislike cooking) Everything I’ve made has been very flavorful and easy to make. Even my hubby who is a meat eater has really been enjoying the meals. It has been instrumental on our journey to eating healthier and cutting food costs.

      Our pre-ordered copy arrived a few days ago and my oldest daughter and I “oohed” and “aahed” our way through all the recipes. We can’t wait to try the pot-in-pot recipes and taking our Instant Pot cooking up a notch. So far, I’ve made the Mung Dal Kitchari and Haldi Doodh (with equal parts homemade almond and oat milks). Really looking forward to using the “yogurt” setting to ferment my dosa batter – living in upstate NY, I’ve always struggled with my house temperature being too low! Thank you for creating another beautiful and inspiring cook book!!

      When thinking about an instapot, I’ve constantly decided on “no” – because of limited space in the kitchen. HOWEVER, now seeing that Richa has a cookbook coming out…???? That might put a new spin on things. I love your Vegan Richa book – it’s my ultimate favourite cook book right now (even over my own titles! :D)

      I’m considering getting an instant pot next year, though I consider it unlikely. A resource like this book could make it a more viable experiment.

      My use-case would be 95% what you’ve called ‘dump and done’ with ‘sauté first’ being a stretch goal I might attempt occasionally. It’s not the time, it’s very limited capacities for coordination and focus. I’m particularly interested in recipes that are suited to batch cooking and freezing in portions.

      Thank you for sharing your tasty & nutritious works.

      I don’t think my son and I would have anything to eat without you. Your recipe is there for nearly half of our meals. Thank you so much for sharing with us. Your food is wonderful.
