PRESSURE COOKER INDIAN BUTTER SHRIMP



Pressure Cooker Indian Butter Shrimp image

A play on the classic Indian chicken makhani, in this recipe yogurt and lime juice-marinated shrimp are cooked in a buttery, gently spiced tomato mixture. The key here is to cook the sauce under pressure, but to use the sauté function to quickly cook the shrimp so they don't turn rubbery. Serve this over rice to catch every drop of the fragrant, creamy sauce. If you're a fan of Indian pickles-lime, lemon, mango, and the like-a spoonful of one or all three on the side would not be out of place. This is one of 10 recipes from Melissa Clark's "Dinner in an Instant: 75 Modern Recipes for Your Pressure Cooker, Multicooker, and Instant Pot" (Clarkson Potter, 2017). Melissa Clark's "Dinner in an Instant" is available everywhere books are sold. Order your copy today.
