- Once the 5 minutes is up, let the Instant Pot sit for an additional 15 minutes for natural release. Then release the valve of any excess steam and take off lid.
- Discard bay leaves. Add in heavy cream and mix well. Using an immersion hand blender blend the potato leek soup to desired consistency. Taste and season with more salt and pepper, if desired.
