Ingredients

  • 3 sweet potatoes, peeled, cut in 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
  • 4 frozen uncooked boneless pork chops (8 ounces each)
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Chinese five spice powder
  • 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) butter
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled, minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon white pepper

Instructions

Step 1
Place potatoes and coconut milk into the pot. Place reversible rack inside pot over potatoes, making sure rack is in the higher position. 

Step 2
Place pork chops on rack. Assemble pressure lid, making sure the PRESSURE RELEASE valve is in the SEAL position. 

Step 3
Select PRESSURE and set to HIGH. Set time to 4 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin. 

Step 4
While pork chops and potatoes are cooking, whisk together hoisin sauce, honey, soy sauce, and Chinese five spice powder. 

Step 5
When pressure cooking is complete, quick release the pressure by moving the PRESSURE RELEASE valve to the VENT position. Carefully remove lid when unit has finished releasing pressure. 

Step 6
Remove rack with pork from pot. Mash sweet potatoes with butter, ginger, and salt, using a mashing utensil that won’t scratch the nonstick surface of the pot. Place rack with pork back in pot and brush top of pork generously with 1/2 of sauce mixture. 

Step 7
Close crisping lid. Select BROIL and set time to 15 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin. After 5 minutes, open lid, flip pork chops, then brush them with remaining sauce. Close lid to resume cooking. Check after 10 minutes and remove if desired doneness is achieved. If not, cook up to 5 more minutes, checking frequently. 

Step 8
When cooking is complete, remove pork from rack and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving with mashed potatoes.
