The Essential Indian Instant Pot Cookbook (2018, Ten Speed Press) is the hard-cover gateway to authentic Indian flavors without spending half the day at the stove. Archana Mundhe—founder of the popular blog Ministry of Curry—distills 75 classic and contemporary recipes into fail-proof Instant Pot formulas: butter chicken in 15 minutes, goat curry that tastes like it simmered all afternoon, and pantry-staple lentils that finish in the same pot as the rice. Every dish is photographed and paired with clear timing charts so beginners know exactly when to release the valve or flip to sauté.
What sets this volume apart is its smart fusion of tradition and tech. Mundhe teaches you to bloom whole spices right in the stainless insert, explains regional differences (Punjabi vs. South-Indian masalas), and offers vegan, gluten-free, and one-pot variations without sacrificing authenticity. A laminated conversion guide in the back means you can cook dried beans and tough cuts of goat without pre-soaking or stovetop monitoring—perfect for week-night dinner heroes and meal-prep pros alike.
This clean, smoke-free copy arrives in very-good condition: crisp, unmarked pages, no dog-eared corners, and a sturdy jacket that will survive years of countertop splatter. For collectors, it’s a first-edition hardcover that rarely surfaces in gift-worthy shape; for cooks, it’s the single reference that turns the Instant Pot into a tandoor, dosa griddle, and curry pot all in one. Grab it now while copies are still circulating—once word spreads, second-hand prices climb fast.
