cozinhar

As soon as the mixture comes to a boil, close the pressure cooker lid and, once it reaches full pressure, cook for exactly 1 minute, turning off the heat immediately after that time.

Dica: The total cooking time after turning off the heat will be 10 minutes before opening the cooker.

Check the texture of the pasta. Optionally, add a small carton of heavy cream and 100g of mozzarella (or cheese of your choice) and stir until melted and incorporated.
