Instant Pot: Plain Pasta

There are lots of recipes for one-dish pasta meals that you can make in the IP.  But my son's favorite food is plain pasta.

After reviewing a couple of recipes online along with some trial and error I've been successful.

Here's my method:

add 1 box pasta
add water to cover the pasta plus about 1/2"
add about 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (to prevent the pasta from foaming)

put on the lid and close the valve

set IP to manual, high pressure, 3 minutes

(it takes my IP about 15 minutes to come to pressure)

when IP beeps, do a quick release and drain the pasta

Easiest pasta ever!
