If you are thinking of investing in a multi-pot or electric pressure cooker (or even multi-pot) as they are known as, we feel you. We had to spend hours looking up various multi-pots online and asking friends and family who use these electric cookers to tell us about their experience. And in doing so, we were able to create this helpful guide to buying the best multi-pot cooker online. From cooking plain rice to making beef stew, these instant pots are perfect. Call us over for a potluck next time!
One-Pot Cooking: Best Multi-Pot You Need To Invest In For Easy Meals
Mealthy MultiPot
Almost everyone we spoke to who uses a multi-pot, uses the Mealthy MultiPot. This versatile electric pressure cooker comes with 9-in-1 cooking functions and 14 preset programs -- cooking poultry to slow-cooking -- that lets you cook a wide range of dishes with ease. It comes in two capacities -- three litres and six litres -- with the three litres one perfect for a family of four or singles. Another thing that we like and we heard from friends of LBB is that it's well-suited for Indian cooking.
Wonderchef Nutri-Pot
Your parents are going to love this cause it's Sanjeev Kapoor's brand. But what they will also love is that it's got 18 preset functions that let you cook rice, pulav, khichdi, biryani, curries, rajma, chole, sambhar, soup, baby food, as well as slow cook, saute, and even reheat food. You'll get a recipe book from Sanjeev Kapoor too when you buy this multi-pot online. Also, if you have Alexa, you can pair this Nutri-pot with it help you make dishes with a step-by-step guide. Pretty cool we say!
Preethi Touch Electric Pressure Cooker
A household name, Preethi's electric pressure cooker keeps things easy and simple with its 5-in-1 functions. It also has a 15 pre-programmed mode that lets you cook Indian dishes -- rajma to rice and pav bhaji to gajar halwa. We like that it's got both open and closed cooking functionality and there's a four-hour keep warm function that'll ensure that the food is hot even after cooking.
Kent Hot Pot & Multi-Functional Instant Cooker
Unlike the delay start feature in the other instant cookers listed above, Kent's electric cooker has a 24-hour delay start. Even the 12-hour keep warm feature is something that gets our thumbs up. Also, just like all these multi-pots listed above, this one also comes with 15 pre-set functions which include baking, steaming, frying, grilling, and even roasting.
Crock-Pot Express Electric Pressure Cooker
If you like making pot roasts, then this electric pressure cooker is really good for that. And also for a million other things that include slow-cooking (it's our favourite style), steaming, and even sauteeing. It's got non-stick removable bowls that you can easily wash and dry. Plus, it's 5.6 litres in capacity meaning, you can easily make enough biryani to feed a family of four.
