Pressure cooker

Hi all
I just bought a pressure cooker now I need some recipes. Anyone got some good ones?

I cook any casserole / stew that I would usually do in oven or slow cooker in the pressure cooker now if I want to save time. So if I was cooking a beef casserole I'd cook for around 30-35 minutes instead of hours in oven. A tip is add any quick cooking veg at the end though (carrots have turned out ok though).

I've also made in pressure cooker:

- soup (pumpkin, vegetable)
- risottos
- Bolognese sauce
- lamb shanks
- roast beef
- chili con Carne
- stocks
- poached pear / apple dessert
- curries (lamb rogan josh, madras etc.)

I've got a women's weekly pressure cooker book which is good, otherwise I google a lot of recipes.

Thank you do u use less liquid or same as the slow cooker recipe?

I use the same, but have found things tend to be runnier when done in pressure cooker, so I either have to thicken with flour or similar, otherwise evaporate at the end without lid on.
