Ingredients
Instructions
Add dried pasta to the inner bowl of Instant Pot
Pour in enough water to just cover the pasta (2-3 cups) and add a pinch of salt
Place lid on Instant Pot and press the pressure cook button. Set the time for the pasta (packet instructions, divided by 2, minus 1).
As the Instant Pot pressurizes, use a knife and chopping board to prepare the vegetables, slice the garlic and zest the lemon
Once the pasta is cooked, press the quick release button to depressurize pot. Once the safety value has dropped down, remove lid and use oven mits to remove inner pot. Drain pasta and reserve 1/4 cup of pasta water (Note 5)
Return inner bowl to Instant Pot, press the saute mode and add the sliced garlic. Stir to cook for 2-3 mins.

Note 1 You can use your favourite pasta for this recipe. Penne, rigatoni, curly, spiral, all work well!
Note 2 We add the peas frozen to the pot, no need to defrost them, they will defrost and cook very quickly.
Note 3 This is 1 standard bunch of asparagus
Note 4 We reserve some of the pasta water to make the sauce (this is the water that the pasta is cooked in).
Note 5 It will be easier to drain the pasta over a heatproof jug and then measure the pasta water. ie Don't try and pour the water into ¼ cup measure at the same time as draining as that is too many things going on at once.
