Method

• 1)

  INSTANT POT: Add 4 Cups of Water into the Instant Pot then add ½ Pound Elbow Macaroni and ½ Teaspoon Fine Sea Salt, give it a quick stir. Place cubed potatoes into a steamer basket and place on top of the macaroni. Seal the Instant Pot lid and choose High Pressure for 8 Minutes. When the timer is up, immediately switch the knob to venting to release the steam. When the pin has dropped, open the lid and carefully pull the basket of potatoes out of the pot and set aside to cool and drain. Pour the macaroni into a colander to drain. Run cold water over the macaroni until it’s cool and let it drain for a few minutes.

  STOVETOP: If you don’t have an Instant Pot, boil the potatoes and macaroni together in a large pot. The potatoes are done when you can easily insert a fork into them (they’ll probably be done cooking first). The macaroni needs to be boiled for 20 minutes.
