Clam chowder or potato soup in the insta pot.

This can easily be adapted to the stove top.

In the insta pot on sauté function, sauté  in oil until the bacon is cooked, and the celery is soft.
1T olive oil
1 celery rib , chopped
1 slice of bacon, cut into 1/4-1/2 inch pieces.

Turn off sauté mode.

Add 4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
Six cups of potatoes, peeled and diced into 1 inch cubes
Salt and pepper
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp onion powder.

Cover, seal, and cook 25 minute on manual.
After the insta pot is done cooking, CAREFULLY de pressure.  USE a towel and an over mitt.  
Open the top away from you.  There will be steam.

Turn off the insta pot.
Use a blender stick to blend the soup.  Leave a few chunks.   (This step is optional)
Add enough milk or cream to reach desired consistency.

Garnish with parsley or cheese.  

For clam chowder.   Add the juice from the can of clams to the vegetable stock, and add the clams after the base has been made when you add the milk or cream.  

Note:   Half the amount of potatoes 🥔 took 10 minutes.

Ingrdents:  the quantities depend on how many you are serving.   It is meant to go with pasta, but I cooked it without pasta and it was fine...
