Sharing my technique for Instant Pot baked potatoes plus an extra step if you want to take your baked potatoes to the next level with crisp and salty skin. Enjoy!
Awesome tips. Thank you.
Thanks been looking all day. red potatoes would you do them the same way ?
pealing a baked potato is wrong on some many levels.
Would that skin peel trick work with tomatoes? can you blanch them in the pot?
How do you call a boiled potato a baked potato?
Love you gal. I am going to add shrimp, broccoli and Alfredo on top on mine for dinner for me and my daughter.
great orator and teacher
All your videos are usefully. You're an awesome instant pot teacher.
Would TWO orTHREE large potatoes cook the same amount of time?
No long waiting time required, no X-cutting either. I learned already as little kid that you take the boiled potatoes and put them into a bowl with cold water. Let sit in the cold water for a few of minutes, the skin is going to swoosh off without any effort. Works every single time, doing it this way for decades. You are welcome.
Really good sprinkled with garlic salt.
Most nutrients in skin.
Wow. I love this idea. Sorry again for my mistake, thinking you subbed me. It was someone else😃😃. But it's a happy mistake. I Realy enjoy your channel👍👍👍
I need to get one of these pots
I will look around and see what ones we have in the uk
Yeah! Nil! I was perusing IP baked potato recipes and ran away from the first video with the music and flash cards. Indigo KNOWS how to do a great video! Very instructional, but not an ongoing motor mouth. Go Nil! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 (Great explanation on the cook time depending on potato size). That’s really why I’m here. Now, I don’t have to waste my time on other videos.
I.N. You are a pro! I’d never handle a hot potato in my bare hands…but, I’m a chicken and not the pro you are. We’re always teasing my mother in law, who had 9 children. She’s 92 y.o. now, still lives independently and very well. She still loves to cook. We call herb”asbestos hands” because she’ll grab almost anything right out of the oven bare handed! We just look at each other and laugh! Nil, by the time you’re 92, I’ll bet you’ll be able to dance on hot coals! 🔥
I love u keep it going!
That was very helpful. Thank you.
What do you think is a good amount of time for par cooked?
I have an 8 quart. Insta pot. Can I just cook 2 large potatoes at a time? My wife and I are empty nesters now.

Best boiled, baked potato method without using any aluminum foil.
I didn’t know about the x. Thanks a lot
I just eat them with the skin on them
You're steaming these potatoes. Not baking them.
Thanks! I use a steamer insert basket so that I can lift all the potatoes out at once and lower them into a larger pot for an ice bath to quick cool them. Same for eggs. I also like your suggestion about putting some of the 'taters under the broiler to crisp the skins for a restaurant quality baked potato or for use in other recipes. I'm a fan of the skins and even leave them on when I mash them or eat them as I peel them for potato salad. Hey, that's where most of the vitamins are! 🙂
Haven't you heard, potatoes have eyes and you want us to POKE them! LOL!
Baked potato recipe? Step #1 Bake potato, Step#2 eat potato. ‘Nuff said!m
Best baked potato with crunchy skins are baked in the oven using olive oil, salt, pepper around 45-60 minutes. I find my Instant Pot cooks food faster but not as good as the old school way. My Keureg coffee maker is fast and easy but not as great as our espresso machine for making cappuccinos.
Poking is not really necessary. Like the X tip.
Love this! Great to make fresh potatoes for potato salad!
Good vid I never peel my potatoes…..peel is so good
To fast peel the potatoes, The ones you did the X on. When you take out drop into a bowl of ice cold water for a few seconds. The skin will come right off then. But have to say I cant see the point in doing what your doing for the actual baked potatoes. Just wash , pierce and salt before sticking in the microwave to cook. And if need be, then stick in the oven for crispier outside.
More a boiled potatoes
Thanks for sharing the wonderful tips.
I like your channel. You add the KISS to instant Pot cooking. Others use the IP for just the minimum of uses with lots of "messing around" with other pans and stuff.
i have the 8 quart and i've tried just one potato with 2 cups of water for 15 minutes and it's not done.
i'm about to take it back .
Is it weird that I can smell the potatoes
beautiful eyes
Nili, you're awesome. I never thought about the oil and bake step afterwards. Great idea, and way yummier 😁👍
Hey CCC ( Cute Cooking Chick ) love the video. Love the Instant pot too, my favorite cooking apparatus by far. Just a thought, have you tried making a slice (full circumference) around the middle of the potato, instead of the X. On sweet potatoes the method I mentioned works great, you can just pinch the ends and the meat of the potato comes out easy!
The metal top of IP is so hot, I got my fingers burned on my first try
Another first-timer for you. Just got an Instapot for my birthday. So far I’ve burned brown rice and reduced beans to mush. You give me hope! 🤪 🤩😜. Thanks.
So, 15 minutes for potatoes.
Great tips!
Awesome job. Yum😋
So, I've joined three cults in the last couple of years. I'm a Pot-head, an Air-head, and a Whizzer. My Instant Pot sits next to my Air Fryer and High Speed Blender. This recipe sounds good, but why heat up a huge oven to crisp up your potatoes? Get an Air Fryer, throw them in there at 400F for about 5-10 minutes…DONE!
In fact, I usually bake my potatoes in the Air Fryer which frees up my Instant Pot for the main course!
I found you again, when I looked how to make a baked potato via my instant pot.
date = 10/14/2018. I hope the commenter is correct via my other post, that the steam neutralizes all the baddies. Has been a long time but I am hungry for a baked potato. Hope the family are all doing ok Nili and little Renae's eye is coming around. Pet the cat for me…. <:-)
Eat the skin, it’s good for you!
Thank you for the video. You have a good sense of humour.
