Add all ingredients (except pasta) into the Instant pot and stir well to combine. Place pasta evenly on top (DO NOT STIR), pressing gently so the pasta is immersed in the liquid. Close and lock lid (making sure that valve is set to sealing). Select manual setting (or pressure cooker) for 8 minutes.
When 8 minutes is done, turn valve to venting, to release pressure. Open lid, give a good stir and serve.
