Instructions
- Place the penne in the bowl of the instant pot, pour the broth, the nutmeg and the oregano. Push the penne to immerse them as much as possible in the liquid. Close the pressure cooker with the pressure button in the sealing position.
- Select "pressure cook or manual", set 5 minutes to "high". The pressure will take about 8 minutes to rise before starting to cook.
- When the end of the cooking alarm sounds, release the pressure.
- Remove the lid, add the cream cheese, Parmesan and cream and stir for a few seconds. Cover without closing tightly and let stand 2 minutes to let the cheeses melt. Uncover, stir and serve immediately sprinkled with parsley.
Notes
- This dish can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Do not freeze.
- If you have leftovers, you can add 1 to 2 tablespoons of cream to the pasta when you are going to reheat, this will make the sauce creamier.
