• Sauté Celery and Carrot: Add in chopped celery and carrot. Sauté until the vegetables are slightly browned (roughly 5 - 7 minutes). Optional layer seasoning: taste and season with more kosher salt and ground black pepper. Add 2 bay leaves, a pinch of rosemary, sage and thyme (rub the herbs with your fingers to "activate" them), then sauté for another minute until fragrant.
• Deglaze: Add a dash of sherry wine in the pressure cooker and deglaze by scrubbing the flavorful brown bits off the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
• Add Turkey Quarters & Potatoes: Add browned turkey quarters, reserved flavorful liquid from skillet (if any) and the remaining unsalted chicken stock in the pressure cooker. Place a steamer basket into the pot and add in the halved Yukon gold potatoes. Close lid and pressure cook at High Pressure for 18 - 20 minutes + 10 minutes Natural Release.
• After 10 minutes of natural release, turn the Venting Knob to Venting Position to release the remaining pressure. Open the lid carefully.
• Make Mashed Potatoes: Remove the steamer basket and place all the potatoes into a large mixing bowl. Mash the potatoes with a fork or masher. Add 1 - 2 tbsp (14g - 28g) unsalted butter, 30g grated Parmesan cheese, and 100ml milk or cream. Continue mashing and mixing until desired consistency. Season with kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste. For creamier mashed potatoes, use more milk/cream.
• Make Turkey Gravy: While mashing the potatoes, remove the turkey quarters and set aside. Heat the pressure cooker over medium heat (Instant Pot: Press Saute). Taste the sauce and season with salt and ground black pepper if necessary. Mix 3 tbsp of cornstarch with 2 tbsp of water and stir the mixture into the turkey gravy one third at a time until desired thickness.
