Looking for the best way to steam your spaghetti squash? I have found it to be so easy in my InstaPot!!
Here are the instructions:
1 medium spaghetti squash (about 2 pounds)
1 cup water
INSTRUCTIONS: Cut the spaghetti squash in half, crosswise. You’ll get longer strands of spaghetti squash if you cut it in half crosswise instead of lengthwise. With a large spoon, scoop out the seeds in the center of the squash and discard. Place the steamer insert/trivet into your pressure cooker. Add 1 cup of water to the pot.
Place the squash halves, cut-side up, on the steamer insert.
Place the lid on the pressure cooker.
Cook under high pressure for 7 minutes. On an Instant Pot, press the “Manual” button or “Pressure Cook” and hold the “+” or “-” button until the display changes to 7. OR, if you have the Steam feature you will want to use that.
When the squash is finished cooking, release the valve at the top of the pressure cooker to rapidly lower the pressure.
Remove the lid from the pot and tip the squash halves to pour out the collected liquid. Check on the doneness by poking the squash with a fork. If you like your squash more tender, cook under high pressure for an additional 1-3 minutes.
Take the squash out of the pot and shred with a fork.
Add your favorite topping and/or sauce. Enjoy!!
