Minimum amount of liquid in a pressure cooker

[Anonymous Modernist 13376]

I have a Fissler pressure cooker, and I'm ready to use it to make the Caramelized Carrot Soup. However, the pressure cooker instructions say that I must not cook anything using less than the minimum amount of liquid they recommend (250 to 300 ml). The soup recipe calls for about halt that amount of liquid (the melted butter plus the water). Is everyone just ignoring that minimum liquid requirement when they caramelize the carrots?

Carrots are juicy. Do not underestimate them as a source of liquid also.

If you want to stay on the safe side you can do twice the recipe! ;-) Seriously if you want to be carefull just bring your PC to pressure at a lower speed and monitor it so that you don't vent too much.

Good luck
