  • Add 2 cloves minced garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

  • When the cook time ends, perform a quick release by carefully moving the valve to “Venting.” Keep hands and face away from the steam; wait until the float valve drops before opening the lid.
  • Open the lid, add the remaining 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, and mash the potatoes and cabbage to your desired consistency using an immersion blender, hand masher, or stand mixer.
