NINJA Foodi Pressure Cooker XL Steam Fryer User Guide
Choosing the right cook function
Helpful hints
When following a recipe, ALWAYS use the exact amount of liquid, even when
scaling down proteins or vegetables.
Refer to the Inspiration Guide for exact liquid measurements for beans,
grains, starches, and more.
When using SteamCrisp™ functions, always add liquid to the pot.
Any liquid can be used for pressure cooking. Use broths or sauces instead of
water to infuse additional flavor. Always use a minimum of 1 cup of liquid.
Depending on the recipe, you may need up to 3 cups
To convert oven recipes, use the Bake/Roast function and reduce the temperature by 250F.
When switching from pressure cooking to crisping, after pressure cooking,
empty any remaining liquid from
the pot for best crisping results.
Pressure cooking tips
The unit will naturally depressurize when cook time ends. The heat will turn
off but the food inside will continue to cook with the steam. Use for recipes
designed for this type of pressure release.
These recipes will likely have shorter cook times to account for gentle
cooking during depressurization.
To quick release, move the pressure release valve to VENT before you start
pressure cooking.
Best for smaller foods that are sensitive to overcooking.
DO NOT use for starchy or foamy foods
NOTE : Steam exits from the top of the Pressure Release Valve. DO NOT reach over the valve.
The time to build pressure will vary based on selected pressure, temp of the
pot, and temp and quantity of ingredients (up to 20 minutes or more). Frozen
and/or large amounts
of ingredients will increase the time to pressure significantly (45 minutes or
more
Please make sure to read the enclosed Ninja® Owner’s Guide prior to using
