Preparation

Step 1

Press the Sauté key on the Instant Pot (it should say Normal, 30 minutes). In a couple of tablespoons of water sauté onion, carrot and celery and cooking for 4 about minutes, stirring a few times.

Add the rest of the ingredients and stir. Cancel the Sauté function by pressing Keep Warm/Cancel button.

Place and lock the lid, make sure the steam releasing handle is pointing to Sealing. Press Manual (High Pressure) and adjust to 10 minutes. After 3 beeps the pressure cooker will start going.

Once the timer goes off, allow the pressure to release for 10 minutes and then use the quick release method before opening the lid.

Serve with chopped chives or scallions and extra lemon on the side. A dollop of full fat plant based yogurt is great stirred in.
