Instant Pot Potatoes and Carrots

 Yesterday was Dale's birthday and we got together for lunch.  I made these and wanted to keep track of my recipe for future reference.  

Instant Pot Potatoes and Carrots 

2-3 T. olive oil

1 onion cut in chunks

1 1/2 lbs. mini carrots

4 cloves of garlic

10 yukon gold potatoes, cut in 1 inch chunks

2 c. water or broth 

1/2 c. fresh chives and parsley, finely chopped

4 T. butter

salt and pepper

Place oil in instant pot on saute and add the onions.  When the onions are carmelized add the carrots and garlic.  Saute a few more minutes and turn off.  Add the potatoes, water and fresh herbs.  Cook on High for 5 minutes.  Natural release for 5 minutes and then quick release remaining pressure.  Drain most of the liquid off.  Top with butter and salt and pepper.   Serve.
