• Cover the dish with foil. Place it on top of the trivet. Pour 1 1/2 cups of water into the bottom of the Instant Pot. Carefully lower the trivet and dish into the bottom of the Instant Pot.
• Place the lid on top and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual pressure cook button to 21 minutes. Once the timer beeps let the pressure release naturally. It took mine 10 minutes to release.
