Popsugar Living Winter Recipes North African Stew Instant Pot Recipe This North African Stew Can Be Made in an Instant Pot in Just 7 Minutes 7 October 2018 by Hajar Larbah Image Source: POPSUGAR Photography / Hajar Larbah Instant Pots are a life saver in the kitchen when you're having the busiest of days. Sometimes though, you have a little extra time in the kitchen to experiment. My favourite is a traditional North African dish with cannellini beans cooked in a spiced tomato sauce with chunks of meat, typically lamb. It's hearty, filling, and perfect for the weather coming up. This is one of those dishes where the quality of your ingredients is key because there are not too many components in the recipe. There is lots of beauty in its simplicity. If you're looking to try something new, get your Instant Pot out and let's start cooking!
