What it does
Piping Pot Curry is Meeta's recipe resource for Indian and other home cooking, with a strong focus on Instant Pot and air-fryer methods. Ingredient and dish groups include lentils, beans, paneer, rice, mains, snacks and desserts.
Choose by appliance when the method is already decided. The site highlights Instant Pot and air-fryer recipes, and several dishes explicitly offer both pressure-cooker and stovetop versions. That makes it easier to find a preparation that fits your kitchen rather than adapting an unrelated method yourself.
Lentil and bean categories are useful for building repeatable meals from cupboard ingredients. For a first project, compare the named method and ingredient list before relying on the dietary labels displayed beside recipe cards. Those labels help navigation, while the actual recipe determines what goes into your meal.
The dal-and-basmati recipe shows the appliance guidance in practice. It needs a tall trivet and an inner bowl for cooking rice above the lentils, and the instructions specify pressure and release timing. The page warns that brown rice needs a different cooking time, so it is not a direct swap in that paired method.
