Instructions
4+ hours in advance: cook potatoes and hard boil eggs
In Instant Pot:
Spray bottom of Instant Pot and add cut potatoes, then place uncooked, in shell eggs directly on top of them potatoes. Pressure cook on high for 5 minutes, and use quick release (immediately rotate the vent to release) when done. Carefully, to avoid burns, move eggs to ice water for 5 minutes, then peel and refrigerate; drain potatoes, then move to large bowl and refrigerate.
On stove top:
For potatoes: start a large pot of water boiling, add potatoes and cook until tender, about 6-10 minutes depending on variety and size cut. Drain, move to a large bowl and refrigerate until cool.
For eggs: use preferred method of hard boiling, or: place uncracked eggs in pot and fill with cold water to completely submerge eggs. Place on burner and turn to high, set time for 18 minutes - boiling time should be about 6-8 minutes depending on stove burner and altitude. When timer finishes, move eggs to ice water for 5 minutes, then peel and refrigerate.
