Instant Pot® Creamy Herb Pork, Any ideas on how to make this better?

Enhance the Flavor:

Marinate the pork: Before cooking, marinate the pork in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and olive oil for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight. This will infuse the pork with a deeper flavor.
Use a flavorful broth: Instead of water, use chicken broth or vegetable broth to create a more savory sauce.
Add aromatic vegetables: Sauté onions, garlic, or carrots in the Instant Pot before adding the pork. These vegetables will release their flavor and enhance the overall taste.
Stir in fresh herbs: After cooking, incorporate fresh herbs such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary for a vibrant burst of flavor.

Thicken the Sauce:

Use cornstarch slurry: Mix cornstarch with cold water and add it to the sauce after cooking. Stir until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
Add mashed potatoes: Peel and mash a few potatoes and stir them into the sauce. This will contribute to the creaminess and thickness.
Use heavy cream: If you want a richer sauce, stir in a splash of heavy cream.

Variations:

Add mushrooms: Sauté mushrooms in the Instant Pot before adding the pork. This will give the dish a savory and earthy flavor.
Use different herbs: Experiment with different herb combinations to create a unique flavor profile. Try rosemary, oregano, or basil for a different twist.
Make it spicy: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili powder to the marinade for a little heat.

Other Tips:

Season to taste: Always taste the sauce and adjust the seasonings as needed.
Serve with your favorite sides: This dish pairs well with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
Make a larger batch: Double or triple the recipe to feed a crowd or have leftovers for another meal.
