Rice turns out so well in a pressure cooker! Fast and easy, too!

[@clairemariehoward]

It’s so good 😊

[@helenrees9973]

What a fab vlog Claire you make it all look so easy love your vlogs x

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks you Helen 🥰 I do tend to choose easy recipes I’m not one for too much faff !!! Have a fab weekend Cx

@@clairemariehoward and you enjoy weekend x

[@susandavies8268]

Hi Claire, i found your channel quite recently and im so glad i did. I was thinking about buying a pressure cooker, but to be honest i was a little nervous but after watching this vlog , I'm definitely getting one. Im loving all your vlogs, thank you. XX

[@clairemariehoward]

Hi Susan 👋🏼 I really enjoyed the pressure cooker and I think I’ll be using it a lot going forward it was nice and simple which I love anything that makes life easier 😂

[@ledzep331]

Hi Susan, I have the same Cosori cooker and it's in constant use. Between this and the air fryer the oven is redundant. I make chana dhal and rice in it all the time, but the one feature I use more than I though I would is the sous vide. I got a vac pack machine for about £25 on Amazon and it's changed the way I cook meat and fish, a cheap cut of beef/pork etc. is easily cooked without it turning tough.

Ive taken your lead and joined SW. This . I really enjoy seeing your meals so hoping to get a good first week. Having trouble logging onto the app....not a great start. .lol. I have a ninja 9 in one which has a pressure cooker...they are really good. X

[@clairemariehoward]

Oh best of luck I hope you have a great first week , did you get in the app ? It’s a great help for scanning food in the supermarket and loads of recipes on there Cx

[@glynnismonaghan9032]

@clairemariehoward yes thanks I managed to get into the app. Looks a bit complicated but I'm sure I will manage ..looks good.

[@HeathersHungry]

You were so brave going straight in with a roast! We tried rice pudding first, granted this was years ago, and it was an absolute disaster, we got a burn notice within seconds and the bottom was completely black 😂 we've gotten better at using it since then. My favourite thing to do in it is a tuscan pasta thing but I haven't been able to make it since the slimming started, I dread to think the calories. Great video as always x

[@clairemariehoward]

Oh that sounds nice maybe we’ll have to look for a sw alternative ! Honestly the Beef was amazing my husbands really fussy with chewy meat and he loved it as it was so tender x have a fab weekend C x

[@eileenoliver4585]

That beef wrap looked lovely, made the rice pudding this week enjoyed that , great video Claire xx

[@clairemariehoward]

The beef wrap was so good 👌🏼 the syns piled up in making the wrap tho I might have to cut that down in size for future ones or just for special occasions !!! Glad you love the rice it’s my Fav go to 👍🏼

[@mylittleworld17]

Ooooh I loved this! I may have to look into getting a pressure cooker now! 😂 I’m absolutely loving your slimming world videos, I’ve gone back and watched soooooo many of them and it’s helping me be on plan so much! Take care ❤

[@clairemariehoward]

That’s so good to hear that they are helping you xxx hope you have a fab weekend Cx

[@tsvetelinauchkova5144]

Hi Claire, I enjoy your videos. My daughter is also fussy. When I make bolognese, I blend tin tomatoes with carrots, peppers, and celery, and she loves it xx

[@clairemariehoward]

Thank you ☺️ yes I think blending is the only way to go !!! I always said I wouldn’t have fussy kids and now I have 2 😂 have a good weekend Cx

[@gillianarmstrong955]

I enjoy watching your vlogs. Where do you get your mixes from?

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks so much ☺️ is it the JD seasoning spice mixes you mean I’ll add the link they are fab 🙌🏼 jdseasonings.com/?gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI0NbPqbiXiQMV0ouDBx1ZeDq-EAAYASAAEgKbsvD_BwE

[@susanproctor-brown9762]

Great vlog Claire, all the meals looked delicious xx

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@beckywoodall8423]

Hi Claire, I’m loving these meals that you’re showing us. I tried the slow cooker rice pudding from a few videos ago and it’s now a regular in my house and I am super excited to try the Yorkshire pudding wraps. Glad you love the pressure cooker, when I got mine about a year ago it was amazing and I rarely have to use my oven now! Thank you for continuing to share your journey and the recipes with us all, I find them really motivating and inspiring ❤

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks so much Becky 🙌🏼 yep rice pudding it’s a game changer 😂 and the yorkshires are a new discovery for me which k am loving

[@heathertoms4188]

I’ve got a Ninja foodi and use the pressure cooker function for most of my meals! 😊

[@clairemariehoward]

I loved using the pressure cooker I can’t believe I’ve never tried one before I’ll certainly be using it a lot more in the future 🙌🏼

[@davidjanicecoon2763]

I like Cosori, I have their Air fryer. I’d like one of these next.

[@clairemariehoward]

Yes me too I had a ninja previously and now have their air fryer which has replaced my ninja I loved my ninja but k love this more mainly because it’s bigger and I like the glass front. I don’t have a comparison with the pressure cooker but impressed with it so far 👍🏼

[@angelauk4]

Looks fabulous! How long did you pressure cook the bolognese for please?

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks you x without looking back I can’t quite remember I’m gonna say around 25 min x

[@Yorkshireborn52]

I had a pressure cooker in the early 70’s. Never used one since 😮 Might be complicated, I’m 72 and easily confused 😂 I enjoy all your vlogs, I’m doing SW too and have lost 2 stones

[@clairemariehoward]

Sometimes it’s best to stick with what you know everything I cooked can be done in the slow cooker or oven so if you wanted to recreate you’d just need to tweak your times xxx

[@deborahvincent1289]

Great vlog and love your meals, I want one now lol xx

[@clairemariehoward]

Thanks Deborah ♥️ the beef was lush 🙌🏼

[@clairesingleton7399]

I think I need to come to yours for dinner and I’ll bring wine 🍷 lol. Honestly hun, you’re a pro with cooking ❤❤❤Your meals always look amazing ❤ Rice pudding is absolutely delicious 😋 xxxxx

[@clairemariehoward]

Well Claire if you are bringing wine you are always welcome 🥂 thank you x the rice pudding is my fav and with the coconut milk is my new even more favourite ❤️

[@clairesingleton7399]

Spaghetti bolognese is good 😊 and it’s something my 9 year old will eat. She’s becoming more fussy with food lol 😂 ❤xxx

[@clairemariehoward]

Mine are so fussy I still have to make them a separate one unless I blend that veg there is no way they would eat it 🤦🏻‍♀️ I always said I wouldn’t be that mum 😂 but here I am 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@sarndrahodge9305]

Hi Claire you can release the steam yourself you don’t have to wait I have the same pressure cooker it is so easy and safe

[@clairemariehoward]

Yes Sandra I did do that after the last dish I made in there and you are right very quick and easy it did make me jump that first hiss 🤣🤣🤣 very much enjoying using it any tips on what you’ve made in yours ? Cx

[@curlytop8160]

Looks good ! I dont have anymore room on my benches for another gadget . I like a few others have scary memories of pin shooting out of old style pressure cooker 😳

[@clairemariehoward]

I mean they sound terrible 😂😂😂

[@ladymawa]

Haters gonna hate. Sorry to hear you’ve had such a hard time lovely xxx

[@clairemariehoward]

Thank you ♥️🥰 I’m not really fussed about that person more concerned that that wasn’t a wider view so wanted you to just clear the air and put it out there x C

[@jeanella1ify]

I’m confused about the 1 syn Yorkshire pudding wrap. If you used 30g flour, it’s saying 25 g flour is 4 Syns in my book.

[@clairemariehoward]

Do you know what Jean I just copied the recipe and I didn’t even check 🤦🏻‍♀️ it says they are 45 calories or 1 syn . And I’ve just checked the flour and you are right 4.5 syns for 25 g there is nothing else that is syns in the recipe so I’m thinking that one syn is from the extra 5g flour 🤷🏻‍♀️ here’s the link see what you think fatgirlskinny.net/amazing-low-1-5-syn-yorkshire-puddings-slimming-world/amp/

[@jeanella1ify]

Thanks for all your recipes, like your new consori pressure cooker. I’ve got an instant pot one but I think your one is better.

[@pnut671]

Is it because it makes 4 Yorkshire puddings? 4 syns divided by 4 yorkies = 1 syn each. Px

[@clairemariehoward]

@@pnut671 of course it is 🤦🏻‍♀️

[@hjcdormouse7337]

Oh Claire the memory of my mums old Pressure Cooker in 70's a mad hissing beast on the stove terrifying on its own add in soggy over cooked veg 🤢 it was not helped by my dad telling me it was, a mini Dalkek from Dr Who🤦‍♀️ Life moved on I have had various versions each one improving and safer. I became disabled mainly wheelchair confined and years bed confined cooking was not possible sheer torture for someone that loves cooking and baking. I just gave instructions to my husband and he settled on a Preasure Cooker from Pantry he likes and his cooking has improved. I have been able to be up more and helping back to doing Oh I found a recipe... then not exactly following it my thought is a, recipe guide not a you must follow. I fell in love watching ease of use of various cooking techniques and so want Cosori Preasure Cooker so great you got one and I can get ideas from you as, well. I figure I can put it on low table and do so many things I can no longer do on Stove as it is to high and unsafe for me to use... I have failed so far in my Apprentice Style Pitch to persuade said husband I need another Preasure Cooker🤦‍♀️ and running out of ideas on how to persuade him as it will be him that needs to go buy it for me grrrrr. You highlighted a real problem for housebound folks not seeing new products on shelves I have added those Stock Pots to shop list... Online shopping has been a game changer but as much as I always hated shopping sometimes it is good just to have a good browse... I use to do it in middle of night when I was fit and able as I am a total night owl. Anyhoo that took me down memory lane and heightened my I want to a I need a, Cosori Preasure Cooker. Have a great rest of your week 🥰

[@clairemariehoward]

Hello 👋🏼 wow your mums pressure cooker sounds terrifying 😂 I think it’s great and as long as you had a sturdy low surface it may be a great way for you to be able to cook !!! 🙌🏼 if I had to rely on my husband to cook it would be beans on toast and pizza going forward 😂🤣 I’m sure he would learn 🤔 You do miss a lot not going to the super market don’t you so I do like to go for a little mooch around every now and then I suppose that’s where social media is great as you can get ideas from others xxx I hope you have a lovely weekend Cx

[@jessicahayes-jones5327]

So sorry Claire unfortunately you can't stop horrible people making fools out of themselves they need to get back on the playground with the five year olds you did state at the beginning of the video loved your video don't take any notice of unhinged people carry on being you love your videos

[@clairemariehoward]

Thank you Jessica x I put a lot of time and effort in the vlogs so always glad to hear when people are enjoying them it means a lot so thank you for your support it’s very much appreciated 🥰🥰🥰🥰 have a good weekend Cx

[@mandypetservices2128]

I want a pressure cooker now 😂

[@clairemariehoward]

Well I’d heard of a lot of people using them but never tried one before I think it will take a bit of tweaking getting use to timings etc but I loved using it and I’m sure I’ll get a lot of use out of it in the future 🙌🏼

[@kimghoss6021]

Bye bye

[@clairemariehoward]

👋🏼

[@deborahvincent1289]

Just got my pressure cooker did you just Google how long to put the beef joint in for ? Sorry if a stupid question just don’t want to ruin it lol @clairemariehoward

[@clairemariehoward]

Yes I did Google up roast beef in pressure cooker without looking back through video I’m pretty sure mine was in for about an hour on high pressure I browned it off first and left it to de pressure naturally , but so many recipe ideas for roast beef on Google x

[@clairemariehoward]

Mine was so good I’m not sure if I would have preferred it a little less cook time but I don’t think my husband and the boys would agree with that 🤣
