Instructions
  1. Press Sauté to pre-heat the cooker. When the word "Hot" appears on the display, add the oil and sauté until the leeks soften, 8 to 10 minutes.
  2. Add the vegetable broth, potatoes, and garlic and lock the lid in place. Press Manual and adjust time to 6 minutes cooking time.
  3. When the beep sounds, quick release the pressure by pressing Cancel, and twisting the steam handle to Venting position.
  4. The potatoes will be very soft and falling apart. Mash them gently with a potato masher to break them up more.
  5. Stir in the chopped kale, and lock the lid in place again. Press Manual and adjust time to 2 minutes cooking time.
  6. When the beep sounds, quick release the pressure by pressing Cancel, and twisting the steam handle to Venting position.
  7. Stir in the apple cider vinegar and season to taste with salt. Grind in about 20 turns of black pepper, or to your liking.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with the green onion. Enjoy!

    New to Instant Pot but I’m learning.
    Modified the recipe. Started by sauteing a few pieces of bacon, chopped. Removed to drain on paper towel. Used as garnish at the end.
    Continued as written except didn’t mash the potatoes, substituted spinach for kale and chicken broth for vege broth, and left out the vinegar. Use what you have!
    Delicious!! Husband wants it again.

    Has anyone made this with unsalted stock/broth and without the kale? Maybe with some heavy cream?
