Preparation Steps

• Wash the potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry. Prick each potato several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during cooking.
• Add 1/4 cup of water to the Instant Pot insert and place the trivet inside.
• Arrange the potatoes on top of the trivet, standing upright or lying flat.
• Close the lid and set the valve to 'Sealing'. Select the 'Manual' or 'Pressure Cook' setting and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes.
• Once cooking is complete, allow a natural release for 10 minutes, then perform a quick release by moving the valve to 'Venting'.
• Carefully remove the potatoes using tongs or oven mitts. Let them cool slightly before slicing open and adding toppings.
