Why You’ll Love This Instant Pot Veggie Stir Fry

What sets this stir fry apart is its unmatched simplicity and speed. The Instant Pot Duo 7-in-1 Electric Pressure Cooker, 6 Quart makes it possible to perfectly steam, sauté, and infuse your veggies with flavor in less than 20 minutes. Even better, this stir fry is fully customizable—use your favorite produce and transform whatever’s in your crisper drawer into a fresh, delicious main or side dish.

Prepping Vegetables for Ultimate Freshness

Precise chopping ensures your vegetables cook evenly and look as good as they taste. Streamline your prep by using a Mueller Pro-Series 10-in-1, 8 Blade Vegetable Chopper to dice, slice, and julienne a variety of veggies in seconds. This keeps prep fast and your stir fry crisp and colorful. For best results, use a mix of bell peppers, carrots, broccoli florets, snap peas, and onions, but feel free to substitute based on what’s in season or on hand.

The Secret to a Great Stir Fry Sauce

A silky sauce pulls the dish together—think soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and a touch of sesame oil. Whisk your sauce ingredients together in a bowl, or give them a quick mix in the Ninja BL610 Professional 72 Oz Countertop Blender, Black for perfectly emulsified and bold flavor. Pour over your veggies before cooking, so everything is evenly coated and delicious.

Cooking and Serving Your Veggie Stir Fry

Sauté the aromatics directly in the Instant Pot using the “Sauté” function, then layer veggies and sauce, lock the lid, and let the appliance work its magic. This method locks in flavor and keeps your vegetables bursting with color and nutrients. For easy cleanup, store leftovers in Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Containers, Set of 5—they’re leakproof and perfect for meal prep.
