- 1 cup water
- salt to taste (optional)

- Start the instant pot and set it on manual or pressure cook mode for 0 minutes on high pressure with vent in sealing position. (Update: Many readers enjoy crunchier broccoli, for which 0 minutes at low pressure works great)
- When the instant pot beeps, quick release the pressure manually. Remove the steamer basket carefully as it is hot.
- You can place this basket under cold water for a minute to stop the cooking (optional) or just eat the broccoli right away.
- Season with salt, pepper and enjoy.

Notes
- Broccoli: You can also cook an entire head of broccoli or frozen broccoli the same way in the instant pot.
- Quick Release: It is important to quick release the pressure and take the broccoli out of the instant pot, so it does not overcook.
- Double the quantity: Even if you double or triple the quantity of broccoli, the cooking time will remain the same.
