• Sink the cabbage and vegetables as much as you can into the liquid broth.
• Close the Instant Pot lid (make sure the valve is up - in the position for sealing) and pressure cook on high for 4 minutes.
• When the cooking time is finished, allow a natural pressure release for at least 4 minutes.
• To open the Instant Pot lid, move the valve to 'venting' and manually release any remaining pressure, if applicable.
• Serve Jamaican cabbage warm and enjoy!
