Step 9

Uncover the Instant Pot and mix. Make sure that the pumpkin is fork-tender. Add the spinach and peas into the pot, stir, and cover the Instant Pot. Let stand covered for 5 minutes to allow the spinach to wilt and the peas to cook.

Step 10

Uncover the Instant Pot. The pumpkin will end up being partially intact. Some of it will soften into the curry sauce, which is what makes this recipe nice and thick. Add lime juice and stir all the ingredients until combined and serve immediately over white rice and topped with fresh cilantro.
