Top tip: A pressure cooker traps steam to cook food more quickly. Once any liquid starts to boil, it cannot escape, creating pressure. The steam inside increases and maintains the liquid’s temperature, resulting in a faster cooking time.
Close the pressure cooker. Bring up to pressure following manufacturer’s instructions (until steam escapes at a constant rate and there is a regular hissing sound). Reduce heat to low. Cook 25-30 minutes.
Release pressure straight away. Remove lid. Serve chops with sauce and sprinkled with parsley. Accompany with couscous and steamed vegetables.
Top tip: It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions carefully, and always release pressure slowly and away from you.
