Critical Success Points

  • Brown the meat before pressure cooking.
  • Do not let the frik stick to the bottom; stir as soon as added.
  • Pressure cook the frik to achieve a tender texture.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil carefully to avoid splatters.
  • Follow the pressure cooker safety instructions (do not exceed the maximum water level).
  • Use gloves or a thick cloth when opening the pressure cooker.
