Instructions

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add oil, onion, and garlic. Saute until onion is soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes.

Choose manual high pressure and set the timer for 17 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
