Instructions
- Set Instant Pot to “Sauté.” Slice onion and red bell pepper, dice carrots. Mince garlic and grate ginger.
- Add coconut oil, cardamom, and bay leaves to Instant Pot. Stir frequently for five minutes.
- Add peas, onion, red bell pepper, carrot, garlic, ginger, and all remaining spices to the Instant Pot. Sauté for an additional five minutes.
