Steps:
- Make sure your asparagus fit in the pot. Trim the ends to make them fit.
- Add the water and butter to the pot. Also add garlic, if using.
- Press the Pressure Cook/Manual button or dial. Then press the +/- button or dial to select 1 minute. Select 0 minutes for thinner asparagus*, or for crisper results (see note).
- When the butter is melted and the water is hot, add the asparagus, laying half in the pot, and the other half crossways over the first layer. You don't need a steamer rack, it is optional.
- Close the lid and set the steam release knob to the Sealing position. The pot will take a few minutes to come to pressure.
- As soon as the cooking cycle is finished, turn the steam release knob to the Venting position. When the pin in the lid drops back down, open the lid.
- Use tongs to gently take the asparagus out of the pot onto a plate.
- Add the salt and lemon juice to the liquid in the pot. Taste and adjust salt and/or lemon juice as needed.
- Stir in the parmesan and then spoon mixture over the asparagus.
- Serve immediately.
