  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Add the potatoes, garlic, butter, salt and pepper to the instant pot. Cover with vegetable stock, and stir so that the potatoes are well coated.

  • When doubling the recipe, double all the ingredients but don’t double the liquid and keep the cooking time the same.
