A stovetop pressure cooker. A pressure cooker is a sealed vessel for cooking food with the use of high pressure steam and water or a water-based liquid, a process called pressure cooking. The high pressure limits boiling and creates higher temperatures not possible at lower pressures, allowing food to be cooked faster than at normal pressure.
A pressure cooker is often used to compensate for the low atmospheric pressure at very high elevations. Under these circumstances, water boils at temperatures significantly below 100 °C and, without the use of a pressure cooker, may leave boiled foods undercooked. Charles Darwin commented on this phenomenon in The Voyage of the Beagle: [1]
Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture reduces slightly and smells fragrant, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, season fillets on both sides with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste.

Pricking the potato with a fork or knife allows steam to escape during the cooking process and prevent accidental explosions/rupturing of the potato skin and flesh due to accumulate steam pressure inside. Potatoes cooked in a microwave oven without pricking the skin are especially susceptible due to rapid fluctuations in heat.
Think again, because you can cook up this beef stew in 20 minutes. Sirloin, carrots, and potatoes make it just as hearty as recipes that take more time. Recipe: Simple Sweet Savory
All microwave ovens use a timer to switch off the oven at the end of the cooking time. Microwave ovens heat food without getting hot themselves. Taking a pot off a stove, unless it is an induction cooktop , leaves a potentially dangerous heating element or trivet that remains hot for some time.
To make things easier, use kitchen appliances that shorten cooking times, like a pressure cooker or air fryer, or focus on dishes that need minimal attention, like a chili or stew in the slow cooker.
