How to Cook Egg in the Instant Pot. Step-by-step instructions and detailed time duration on how to cook “boiled egg” using my Instant Pot Duo Crisp Plus Air Fryer.
Equipment
I want to emphasize each instant pot is different, and some settings may not be on the instant pot you got. In my case, I am using Instant Pot Duo Crisp 11-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker with Air Fryer Lid, 8 Quart. This Instant pot doesn’t have the rice setting, so I am using the pressure cooker setting.
