I'm new to owning an instant pot so I'd love to see what everyone likes to make.

Cut up like five tomatoes, a red onion or two, and some garlic. Sauté it until soft and add salt and loads of cumin. And, if you can find it, a small spoon of achiote paste.

When it's all soft and fragrant, add a cup of lentils and a 1.75 cups of water. High pressure for 10 minutes and natural release for 15.

Serve it with rice and you've got yourself an Ecuadorian menestra.

Ooo I've never had Ecuadorian food before but I'd love to try it. Where do you find achiote paste and if I can't find it, is there a viable alternative?

I get it in Ecuador 😅

But it's a typical Mexican thing actually, so any place you can get Mexican products would be your best bet.

I've made menestra without achiote and it tastes fine, so I'd say just try without it if you can't find it.
