Instant Pot Gammon Rice

9 · Jul 4, 2020 · 4 Comments

As you may know I love cooking gammon, I tend to cook it with plenty of stock so I have leftovers for this Instant Pot Gammon Rice.

In fact, the little Tapita insists I do!

She loves having some of the gammon the moment I get it out of the pot.

A scoop of delicious Feisty Tapas Gammon Rice cooked with leftover gammon stock and gammon in the Instant Pot Duo Crisp.

How to cook the gammon

This recipe uses leftover gammon and stock from cooking that gammon.

So make sure you read the post where I explain how to pressure cook gammon in your Instant Pot first, it's here.

Other things you can cook with gammon leftovers

This Ham and Cabbage Soup.

Or this Chicken, Leek and Carrot Soup.

Of course, you can also use it in salads or in pasta dishes.

Think of it as a substitute for pancetta or bacon too.

Also, you can freeze the stock to use from frozen.

I tend to freeze it in amounts I know I'll use, so either 400 ml or 800 ml for risotto as those are my key amounts.

The stock is also perfect for freezing in ice cube trays, then pop the ice cubes out when frozen and store in bags to add favours (from frozen) to dishes.

Gammon / ham stock adds lovely flavour to dishes.

Air Fryer Lid

The Instant Pot Duo Crisp comes with a very cool (or hot) Air Fryer Lid.

The cooker itself controls the air fryer lid so there are no added fiddly cables.

It's a very nifty design with a protective cover that protects both your kitchen counter when it's hot and the lid itself when it's stored.

And yes you can buy it in the UK / Europe now!

Both the Instant Pot UK website and Amazon UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the Netherlands have it.

Instant Pot Gammon Rice

Serves 4. You can halve it or double it. Timings remain the same but you have to be mindful of the filling rules

Fancy printable card below, you can choose to not print the photos with it

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil, or oil of your choice
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 small-medium carrot, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • Half a stalk of celery, finely chopped 
  • Dash of red/white wine, about 20 ml (optional, can use some of the stock)
  • 300 g arborio rice
  • 800 ml gammon stock
  • Gammon leftovers, diced. About 100 g, don’t worry if you have less, add what you’ve got, it all contributes to the flavour. Need to cook your gammon? Check out how to here
  • Approx 80 g extra mature cheddar cheese, or cheese of your choice, grated 
  • A very big handful or two of grated cheese (I used mature cheddar as that’s what I always have at home)

Method

Add the 1 tsp of oil to the inner pot. Press Sauté and set to Less. Add the chopped onion, carrot, garlic and celery and stir to coat in the oil. Put the glass lid on and let it sauté for a few minutes.

Stir well.

After 1-2 minutes, add the stock. As it’s gammon stock, don’t add any salt just yet.

Make sure the sealing ring is in and well pressed down. Lock the lid in. Steam release handle point to Sealing, unless you have a self-sealing lid (how cool are they?). 

Press Pressure Cook / Manual and programme 5 minutes.

When pressure cooking time is over do a quick pressure release. Looking good!

Press Broil, 204°C, in total I did 8 minutes. 4 minutes and checked. Added 2 minutes and checked again. Another 2 minutes and it was perfect.

If you don't have the air fryer lid, either stir the cheese at the end (which is what I used to do before the air fryer lid came along or put under the grill or in the oven).

Make sure you let me know how it turns out!

Notes

If you don't have the air fryer lid, just stir in the cheese at the end when you add the ham or brown it under the grill or in the oven.
*Instant Pot Terminology
Quick pressure release (QPR, also called quick release or QR) means venting the steam as soon as the pressure cooking process finishes, i.e. moving the steam release handle from Sealing to Venting.
Natural pressure release (NPR, also called natural release or NR) 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. 
Sometimes you'll see me talk of a combination of NPR followed by a QPR. For example a recipe may have a 4 minute NPR followed by a QPR. You wait for 4 minutes at the end of the pressure cooking time and then do a QPR by moving the steam release handle from Sealing to Venting.

    I'm an Instant Pot newbie and tried this for the first time with gammon and stock left over from your gammon recipe. It will be a firm favourite in this house. My husband said he was in 'food heaven', so thank you for the recipe 🙂
