That is the magic of the pressure cooker. If you forget the water they will blow and yes, you will have food every where!
OK this is a dumb question but when you say "water" do you actually mean water or just liquid of any kind?
I didn't see my DD put water in it but maybe she did while I wan't paying attention. I know she put some chicken broth in.
I make stuffed peppers all the time in mine, I use one large can of prepared tomato sauce and I add extra water, it needs a good deal of liquid so it doesn't burn or blow up, and then you have a nice red sauce for the potatoes, which I also add.
