Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp yellow mustard seeds
  • 1 large onion

  • 2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 serrano chile
  • 1 tbsp garlic
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1 acorn squash
  • 1 lb broccoli
This vegetable side dish is a nice jolt of color in the winter, and one that gets to the table quickly thanks to the Instant Pot. I like to serve it with roast chicken or pork.

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Using the Sauté function on High, heat the oil for about 1 minute, until shimmering. Add the mustard seeds, onion, cumin and salt and cook for 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened and browned.
  2. Stir in the chile and garlic; cook for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Stir in the hot water, squash and broccoli. Secure the lid and cook on high pressure for 2 minutes.
  3. Once the cooking is complete, quick-release the pressure. Remove the lid, stir and serve.
