Indian Multi Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee

Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee

Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee

This Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee recipe is so simple to make, there is really no reason to buy Ghee from the store. Ghee is very popular in Indian cooking.

It is taking the World by storm and is used for all kinds of cooking. Ghee is different from clarified butter as clarified butters are generally prepared by removing milk solids early on.

Whereas, to make Ghee, you want to continue to simmer the butter with the milk solids for a longer period of time. This gives Ghee a distinguished nutty taste, if you will.

Many people make Ghee on the stove top, but since I have an Instant Pot Smart with many features, I thought it would be nice to use it for making Ghee, using the Slow Cooker feature.

I’m asked, “but isn’t it quicker to make Ghee on the stove top”? Well, yes, it sure is. I’m a busy person and I don’t want to stand over a hot stove and worry about the hot burner. I like to be able to walk out of the kitchen and have the Pressure Cooker or Multi-Cooker do the work for me! Try making Ghee on the stove at the same time you are doing your laundry or outside enjoying the day.

 

Cast of Ingredients for Indian Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee

Cast of Ingredients for Indian Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee

All you need is unsalted butter and a Pressure Cooker or Multi-Cooker. Some people like to add a pinch of salt after the Ghee is strained. It is a personal preference. I don’t add salt to my Ghee at all. I figure, oil isn’t generally salted and I like to control the salt in my food.

When I use the Ghee on bagels, toast and any food, where I would use regular butter (like popcorn!) I’ll just salt that food.

Use the best quality better you can afford. Unsalted Kerrygold Butter for Ghee is very, very popular. Costco makes a nice high quality butter as well.

This Ghee recipe is very popular in the Facebook Instant Pot for Indian Cooking Group!

 

Add Butter to the Pressure Cooker Cooking Pot

Add Butter to the Pressure Cooker Cooking Pot

Add your butter to your Pressure Cooker or Multi-Cooker cooking pot.

 

2016-04-11 19.37.02

Set your Pressure Cooker or Multi-Cooker to the slow cooker function on medium and walk away. The milk solids will begin to separate.

I love using this Pressure Slow Cooker Simple Ghee in place of oil when I cook. Food tastes so much better and richer. Even something as simple as Pressure Cooker Ghee Rice  is so delicious and much better than just adding butter to rice.

 

Keep an Eye on the Pot

Keep an Eye on the Pot

After the slow cooker is finished doing it’s thing, turn it off. Select the Sauté or Browning function on the Pressure Cooker or Multi-Cooker and adjust to the low heat setting.

Keep an eye on the pot and stir every once in a while to check to see if the solids have fallen to the bottom of the cooking pot.

The water will evaporate from the butter and the milk solids will fall to the bottom of the cooking pot. The solids will begin to caramelize, which is what you want to happen. This is where the Clarified Butter turns to Ghee.

Cheesecloth works well to strain the Ghee. I like to use an Ultra Fine stainless steel mesh strainer to pour the Ghee into glass jars.

 

Use the Solids for Rice!

Use the Solids for Rice!

See all those milk solids? Don’t throw them away after you Strain them out. The browned bits are delicious and many people enjoy them on bread or snack on them.

I’ve also heard that people throw the milk solids into vegetables and rice. That sounds really good!

 

2016-04-11 21.26.13

The Ghee is completely silky and luscious and ready to use. Try it out on my Pressure Cooker Indian Butter Chicken or my Pressure Cooker Chicken Tikka Masala. Use it in place of Butter or other oils. It adds a delicious, nutty flavor!

 

2016-04-11 21.29.31

You an leave your Ghee out on the counter, or keep in the refrigerator.

More for later!

I like to store my Ghee in these Kerr Half Pint (8 oz) Mason Jars. Ghee will last quite a while if you have stored the Ghee properly. Store some in the refrigerator and store some in a cabinet, out of the light.

    I’m in the cooldown now and I’m not sure whether I’ve got ghee or clarified butter. Either way it smells delightful. I did make a mistake when I ordered my Kerrybrook unsalted butter. I assumed it came in 16 oz. pks so I ordered two. Imagine my surprise when I picked it up and found it came in 8 oz. pks. i did it on slow cook, normal for 2 hours, then changed to sauté, low for 20 minutes. Took it off at 15 minutes after reading a comment about using only 16 oz. The milk solids did not turn brown or sink to the bottom so I’m guessing I got clarified butter. After I use this I will try again,

    My sauté function is only on or off on “normal”. It bubbled a lot but I kept a watchful eye and stirred it continuously for about 15 minutes until it started to froth upwards. I turned the heat off and kept stirring. It seems dark and is now in the fridge. The caramelized bits were very dark brown. Did I burn it?

    I tried making ghee today and followed the instructions exactly. I used the Kerrygold Salted butter (couldn’t find the unsalted ones). However, after sauteeing it for 20 minutes, the solids did not caramelized at all. I strained it anyways with just a strainer, didn’t have cheesecloth or coffee/tea filters. Is it still considered ghee if the solids didn’t caramelized? Can I store the solids in the refrigerator for later use and try to caramelized it later? Thanks for any answers and suggestions!

    I like having some clarified butter (not quite Ghee) for use as oil to grease pans or cook something that I want an oil with no taste. Could I use your recipe and stop after the 2-hour slow cook, and just not saute it? Would that be clarified butter? You comment in your instructions that the saute is when it turns clarified butter into Ghee, so I am guessing that would work.

    Someone had this on the instant pot webpage it’s much different in time than yours is. what you think it will reap?

    “This is what I did ?

    1. Unwrap and add, 16 oz (I used Kirkland unsalted 4-butter sticks) to the IP stainless steel removable bowl.
    2. Turn IP on to Saute Mode, Adjust to Normal (not More or Less). Set a timer for 10 mins.
    3. Stir every 2-3 mins. Turn IP off once the 10 min timer goes off, butter will continue to cook for few mins. Allow it cool down.
    4. Strain the ghee using a fine mesh filter(I used tea filter) or cheesecloth into a dry and clean container.
    5. Cool completely before closing the lid.
    6. Note: Always use a clean, dry spoon or cloth or filter/mesh.”

      Could be that you need to saute on a higher temperature saute than less. Try normal next time. And don’t go by time to determine whether it’s done, go by color. When it’s a nice golden color and the milk solids on bottom are starting to brown, it’s done.

      Another method I’ve used on the stove, and probably would work in the IP, is to NOT stir the ghee at all once you begin the saute mode. Saute until milk solids turn brown.
      I’ve come to this site to see how Jill does it in IP. I’m about to try it in IP, so I’ll see if this works.

        Well, I made this recipe last night. It took 4 hours, and wasn’t even really done then as it was barely browning the milk solids. I used the saute button on less for four cycles of 30 minutes!!! I REALLY wanted to bring the saute up to normal, but since the recipe called for less, I thought it’d be more scientific to do it as written.

        SO, long and short of this is – it seems many of you have an IP like mine – where 20 minutes is nowhere NEAR enough time on Saute-less to brown the milk solids of the butter in order to harvest nice golden ghee. I’d recommend trying it on normal if you’re not browning by 20 minutes on less. The only issue is that you’ll probably get a lot more splattering that way.

        The saute function on my IP cycles on and off. I never knew that. The butter would sit there with barely a bubble, then a few minutes later it would cycle on and I would have to dash over and put the splatter screen back on for about 15 – 20 seconds until it cycled off. I didn’t want to leave it on because you don’t want water in your butter (not really supposed to use a lid).

        Does anyone know if all IP’s cycle on and off in Saute mode, or do I have a defective unit?

    I’ve been making it on the stove for a long time but am trying it this way today – it is slow cooking now. I mainly use it for bulletproof coffee in the morning but recently ran across a recipe for mayo using half ghee and half sesame oil. I don’t like mayo but might like it with ghee in it.

    Can Salted Butter be used for Ghee? Also, I have a glass lid from another 6 qt pressure cooker can I use it?
    I do not understand this statement.
    “After the slow cooker is finished doing it’s thing, turn it off. Select the Sauté or Browning function on the Pressure Cooker Ghee Rice and adjust to the low heat setting.”

    Thanks for all of your great tips and recipes.

      In order to switch from the Slow Cook mode to the saute mode, you have to hit the cancel button on your IP. It doesn’t switch from one mode to the other without first being turned off, then select the next mode you want – in this case saute, adjust “-” for lower saute temperature.

      Yes, salted butter can be used. Yes, a glass lid can be used – but it’s really best to NOT use a lid. The water needs to evaporate from the butter. If splattering bothers you, it’s ok to use a splatter screen.

      I’ve used my ghee well past the 6 months mark. However, I’m extremely diligent about only using a very clean, dry utensil to remove the ghee from the jar.
      It helps to store your ghee in small jars – it reduces the risk of contamination as you’re using a fresh jar sooner than if you stored it in larger jars.

    I just made Ghee for the first time. I am brand new to Instant Pot and so far have made hard boiled eggs your way (perfect and soooo easy), a Taco Pie that was ok (came out warm, not hot) and now Ghee. However the solids did not Carmelize. After the 20 minutes slow cook, I cooked it on low sauté for 25 minutes. At 20 minuets, it was not carmelizing, so I continued another 5, but didn’t know if I should keep going. Should I have continued past 25 minutes until it carmelized? Should I try it next time on Normal (medium) instead of low sauté?

      Evelyn, 20 minutes in the slow cooker is not enough time. You need to let it cook for the entire time in order for the solids to separate. Jill

        I did it on medium for the 2 hours specified in the recipe. Then I used low saute for 25 minutes, 5 minutes longer than your recipe. I just cut and pasted from your recipe: “When Beep is heard, turn off Slow Cook function, open lid and push the Sauté/Browning button and then adjust to the LOW setting. Continue cooking for 20 minutes, stirring frequently. The solids will begin to caramelize, which is what you want to happen. This is where the Clarified Butter turns to Ghee.”
        The solids did not caramelize that I could tell. Thanks for any advice you can give me.
        By the way, I think what I have is clarified butter since the solids did not caramelize, but I am using it constantly. It makes a great, healthy cooking “oil.”

    Since getting my IP, I’m looking forward to making healthier choices for my family. Questions about ghee: 1) can salted Kerrygold butter be used if unsalted is unavailable? and 2) how long can it be left on the counter (or in the cupboard) before it goes bad?

      I made some this morning and I think it worked okay……it says to saute on ‘Low’ but I can’t figure out how to change my saute setting on my Instant Pot to low. It stayed at medium so it boiled pretty vigorously. The ghee is fine with the milk solids turned a dark brown (not black) and they smell SO good :)….like a roasted toffee or something but i am not sure it is okay to eat them that dark.

    Hi, I made my batch of ghee this afternoon. I didn’t realize it would take on a more solid consistency when cold. I thought it stayed much like oil. Definitely cheaper than purchased. I even stopped at a local Indian store this afternoon just to price it. Of course, I had no idea which brand was better, but prices ranged from $3.99 (which is about what I paid for the 2 lbs of butter) to $8.00. I managed to find butter on sale. It’s not Kerrygold. I had a hard time straining it, I used cheese cloth, but wasn’t happy with the results. I didn’t help that my house was cold inside (well 68 degrees, but that’s cold enough to make it solidify). I can’t wait to use it in something. But then I had to figure out what to cook in the IP to use the residue in the bottom!

    Hi Melissa,

    I’m curious, how much ghee did you yield with 32 oz of butter? Thanks for the answer and the recipe!!

    Love,
    Mirian

      Hi Mirian~

      You will get around 26 oz.

    I’m wondering if the ghee could be infused with garlic … and at what point I should toss in some garlic cloves 🙂

    First time ever making Ghee, and made it in the IP. My IP does not have a low setting on sauté, so at about 14 minutes it burned, even though I was stirring it a lot. :-(. Next time, I will sauté for 10-12 min. I’m going to strain it anyway and see if it’s salvageable.

    When I started the Whole30, I decided to make ghee. Since that time, we’ve made it a few times on the stove top.

    We recently bought an Instant Pot. Just the other day I was wondering if we could make ghee in it. Then I found your recipe on the internet.

    We couldn’t be happier with the results! No more stove top ghee for us except for the fact that we set our IP on our glass top stove, LOL

    Jill, can I halve the recipe? It’s only me and that would take a LONG time to use. Thanks!

      Hi Marty~

      You can halve it, just keep a close eye when you get to the sauté step, as it will move quicker with just half the amount of butter.

      Thank you so much for visiting! 🙂

    Hi Jill,
    Heading to the store right now to get the butter! Wish we had a Cosco, just have a Sams Club. I will get your recommended Kerrygold butter. Thanks for all your great recipes and super instructions!

    Ooh – this looks so much easier than stove top ghee. I just ordered an Instant Pot – can’t wait to try this recipe out!
