1. A pressure cooker comprising:
a housing wherein the housing includes an air inlet and an air outlet;
a pressure pot disposed in the housing;
a thermoelectric cooler thermally coupled to the pressure pot to cool the pressure pot;
an air passage located between the housing and the pressure pot, wherein the air passage is in fluid communication with each of the air inlet and the air outlet; and
a fan configured to blow air from the air inlet to the air outlet through the air passage, wherein the air passage is located between the housing and the pressure pot, wherein heat of the pressure pot is transferred via the thermoelectric cooler to the air in the air passage,
wherein the housing includes a bottom, and a sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom of the housing,
wherein the pressure pot includes a bottom, and a sidewall extending upwardly from the bottom of the pressure pot,
wherein at least a part of the thermoelectric cooler is disposed between the sidewall of the housing and the sidewall of the pressure pot, and
wherein the fan is configured to discharge the air through an outlet oriented in a direction parallel to the bottom of the pressure pot such that the air flow changes direction to flow upwardly between the sidewall of the housing and the sidewall of the pressure pot, through the thermoelectric cooler.
