7. Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.

8. Using the display panel select the MANUAL or PRESSURE COOK function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 5 minutes.

9. When the time is up, quick-release the pressure.

10. In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and cold water. Stir into the pot until thickened, returning to SAUTE mode as needed.
