How to cook deliciously - Instant Pot Street Corn Queso

1. Stage

Set Instant Pot to Sauté and heat vegetable oil. Add corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn takes on some golden charred color, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove corn from Instant Pot and set aside in a bowl.

2. Stage

Still on the Sauté function, add butter and let melt. Add garlic and cayenne and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add flour and whisk until smooth, then cook 1 to 2 minutes, until flour is no longer raw.

3. Stage

Add milk and bring up to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until milk has thickened slightly, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add cheese and whisk until smooth and melted completely. Switch Instant Pot to "Keep Warm" and cover until ready to serve.

4. Stage

When ready to serve, give queso a final stir and season with salt if needed. Top with charred corn, queso fresco, onion, jalapeño, and cilantro. If using, finish with a pinch of chili powder. Serve with chips.
