How to boil potatoes in Instant pot?
Scrub and wash the potatoes well and remove all the dirt.
Add around 2 cups of water in the inner pot of instant pot.
Put the trivet or steamer basket in the pot and place potatoes on trivet.
Close the IP with lid, keep the valve to sealing position and cook on Manual (High) for 6-8-10 minutes for small-medium-large potatoes.
Let it NPR (natural pressure release). Once pin drops, open the lid.
Check by inserting a knife or fork in the center, it should go in easily without any efforts.
Remove the cooked potatoes from IP using tongs.
If using right away then peel the skin by hand, it will come off right away.
Or store without peeling in the refrigerator for later use.
