The Electric Pressure Cooker

Not so long ago I brought my pressure cooker because I wanted to save time and with ill health I thought it would make life a little easier. But to my astonishment it works out to be one of the best time saving gadgets I have purchased, I would absolutely recommend anyone to buy one of these. There are several on the market now and range in prices I got mine at a really good price off the internet. I have made stews, boiled rice (to perfection), I even made BBQ wings in it. Its faster than a electric slow cooker even though it had the slow cook enablement button. you can even cook cakes so it says in the instruction manual. This cost around £35-40 and I have seen larger 5ltr capacity on sale for around the £50 mark There is a timer delay on it so you can go about your day and it will be done for when you return. It keeps warm incase you not back in time for the beeps to say its cooked. They are a good buy and well worth the money and time saving.
