Notes
You can also use a steamer basket to stack your potatoes and eggs on as you put it in the Instant Pot. It can stop some of the potatoes from cooking in the water, while others are not. Here is a list of all the Instant Pot Accessories that we use. Peas in your Instant Pot Potato Salad is an optional extra.
We only add peas when we are taking them to a party (like you can see below) the rest of the time we cook it without. It just works as a filler when you are feeding several people. If some of your baby potatoes are much bigger than others, then I recommend that you chop the bigger ones into 6th and your medium ones into ¼ pieces.
I love a nice touch of garlic in my potato salad and use Alioli. It’s a delicious Spanish mayonnaise and here is a good brand. If you don’t want your mustard too strong then add it when you put the potatoes on to steam. It will dilute it a little.
