Instructions

In pressure cooker, sauté onion and garlic in olive oil until starting to soften (about 3-4 minutes).
Add all remaining ingredients, and stir well until all noodles are coated.
Add water to the pot until it just covers the top of the noodles.
Stir, lock lid, and set to high pressure for 4 minutes.
When time is up, put a dish towel over the pressure valve and do a quick release (this helps the steam and condensation not to spew everywhere).
Remove lid and let pasta sit for 10 minutes until any remaining liquid is soaked up.
Serve topped with *optional* shredded parmesan cheese.
