    Instant Pot Fish and Potatoes in Tomato Sauce with Olives

    This Instant Pot Fish and Potatoes in Tomato Sauce with Olives is super easy and tasty.

    The hardest part is going to be slicing the potatoes and opening the tin of chopped tomatoes.

    I've had this recipe in draft for a long time and finally getting it posted now.

    I used cod but any white fish will be fine and yes, you can use frozen fish too.

    Let me know if you try my Instant Pot Fish and Potatoes in Tomato Sauce with Olives!

    New to Instant Pot? It will make your cooking life so much easier!

    The Beginners' Guide covers everything you need to know, find it here and I've recently added a video to get you started to my Pressure Cooking UK with Feisty Tapas group.

    Instant Pot Fish and Potatoes in Tomato Sauce with Olives

    Ingredients

    350 g potatoes about half a cm to 1 cm slices. New potatoes work well but floury ones will be lovely too and, as they tend to disintegrate a bit, they will thicken the sauce. You don't have to be too accurate about the exact weight of the potatoes

    1 tsp sea salt

    1 tsp vegetable stock paste

    2 cod fillets (or any white fish)

    Juice of half a lemon

    10 green pimento stuffed olives, more if you want of course or none if you don't like olives

    200 g chopped tomatoes

    Black pepper, freshly ground

    Soy sauce, a good drizzle

    To serve

    Lemon wedges

    Parsley freshly chopped

    Instructions

    1.

    Pour 250 ml water into the inner pot.

    2.

    Create a layer of sliced potatoes at the bottom of the inner pot.

    3.

    Sprinkle 1 teaspoon sea salt (optional) and 1 teaspoon of my vegetable stock paste.

    4.

    Top with two cod fillets.

    5.

    Drizzle with the juice of half a lemon.

    6.

    Add about 10 green pimento stuffed olives.

    7.

    Top with 200 g chopped tomatoes (do not stir!).

    8.

    A few twists of black pepper and a good drizzle of soy sauce. Do not stir.

    9.

    Lock the lid in after making sure that the sealing ring is properly in place by pressing it down following its circumference a few times. Steam release handle pointing to Sealing.

    10.

    Press the Manual / Pressure Cook button and use the – and + buttons to programme 3 minutes. At the end of the cooking time wait 3 minutes and do a quick pressure release*.

    11.

    Serve with lemon wedges and freshly chopped parsley

    Notes

     
    Feel free to scale up this dish to serve more people, the timings would remain the same. Just remember to only fill up to the ⅔ mark as you're going to be pressure cooking. Always read your instructin manual.
    You can find my Vegetable Stock Paste recipe here.
    *Terminology
    Quick release (also called quick pressure release or QPR) means venting the steam as soon as the pressure cooking process finishes, i.e. moving the steam release handle from Sealing to Venting.
    Natural release (also called natural pressure release or NPR) means letting the float valve pop back down of its own accord, so basically you don’t need to do anything at the end and can keep your feet up. If it takes over 15 minutes, you're ok to release the rest of the steam (by turning the steam release handle to Venting) that may be left in order to unlock and open the lid.

      Made this tonight. Really liked it. I would say keep the potato slices under 0.5cm because mine were slightly undercooked (I did have a triple layer of them as well though!). Also, didn’t have olives to hand and think they would definitely add to the meal.

      Overall, really easy, quick and healthy. Will definitely make it again. Thanks!

      We really enjoyed this recipe, used tinned toms with chilli and added garlic and a knob of butter at the end to add unctuousness.

        Just finished eating this and had to jump on to say it was delicious! Went out to get olives and forgot to get lemon, used apple cider vinegar instead. Added some garlic granules too. Put my green beans on top and cooked everything together. So easy to put together for a lovely meal. Will definitely be making this again.
