Notes
Feel free to use regular potatoes instead of the sweet kind variety. Better to choose red potatoes then since they will hold the shape better in the instant pot.This recipe uses a spicy kind of kimchi made with cayenne pepper, chili pepper, and ginger root. It makes this dish delicious for spicy food lovers. For picky eaters or to keep it more kid-friendly, use a mild kind of kimchi or simple sauerkraut.Serve with sour cream or yogurt to bring the spiciness down.Variations: Use regular green cabbage instead of purple kind. Add some extra spices if desired: smoked paprika, garlic, onion powder, thyme.
