For best results, use an immediate quick release (QR) after the manual cook time to lock in meat moisture, as a natural release causes overcooking. If you prefer a winter variation, substitute 1/4 cup of the half and half with heavy cream and add a small pinch of nutmeg to the potatoes for a richer, warming aroma. Ensure onions are diced as finely as possible for structural stability.
