Instructions
Step 1
Start by prepping the potatoes and slice these into wedges
Step 2
Fill your Ninja Foodi Multi-Cooker with 200ml water and pop the chips into the basket compartment with the olive oil
Step 3
Pressure cook these for around 3 minutes, then carefully move the pressure release value to VENT. Once complete, remove the lid
Step 4
Set the cooker to Air Crisp and cook for 20 minutes. Once the chips are looking nice and crisp (check throughout the cooking process) toss with all purpose seasoning to taste
Step 5
For the rice, pour this into the bottom of the pressure cooker pot and add the water. Pressure cook this for 3 minutes, then again, carefully release all of the air from the valve
Step 6
Stir through the coconut milk, desiccated coconut and black beans, then set to air crisp for a further 10-15 minutes. This will leave you with some nice crispy bits as well
Step 7
Pop the chips back into the basket and set the cooker to warm whilst you prep the rest of the bowl
Step 8
Pop the chips back into the basket and set the cooker to warm whilst you prep the rest of the bowl
