Instant Pot Puerto Rican Potato Salad

Puerto Rican potato salad is the creamiest and most flavorful and is made using an Instant Pot.

Instant Pot Puerto Rican Potato Salad is the best potato salad you have. This Puerto Rican recipe favorite is full of flavor, super creamy, and very different from the store-bought one.

What I love about this recipe is that you can add apples to give it a little extra kick of flavor.

Of course, if apples are not your thing, you can always not add them. However, this potato salad will still taste amazing!

How to Cook Potatoes and Eggs Together In The Instant Pot

Using your Instant Pot or electronic pressure cooker, follow the steps below:

• First, add the potatoes to the Instant Pot liner.
• Second, add the uncooked eggs on top of the potatoes.
• Third, add the water.

It is essential to place the eggs above the potatoes.

Next, you will close the lid and hit the Manual or Pressure Cook button, high for 4 minutes. For newer models of Instant Pot, please hit the Pressure Cooker button.

Once it is done, hit quick release and drain any water.

You can place the eggs in an ice bath if you want. I didn't, and my eggs came out fine.

Make sure you slice up the eggs and apples.

In a large bowl, grab the potatoes and place them with the rest of the ingredients.

Mix well and taste to make sure it tastes good to you and it's to your liking.

You can refrigerate the potato salad or serve it at room temperature. I prefer to refrigerate the potato salad.
