When done do a QPR (quick pressure release) and let the chowder cool for a few mins, before transferring half into a blender and blending until smooth.
Return the blended corn chowder soup into the rest of the pot, season with salt and serve with toppings of your choice.

Heat the olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Add sweet potato and cook for 5 minutes.
Then in the garlic purée and smoked paprika and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Mix in the vegetable broth, bring to the boil and simmer for about 10 minutes or until the sweet potato is tender.
Stir in the sweetcorn kernels and spring onions, bring to the boil and simmer for 2 minutes.
Switch off the heat and mix in the milk.
Let the chowder cool for a few minutes, before transferring half into a blender and blending until smooth.
Return the blended sweet corn chowder soup into the rest of the pot, season with salt and serve with toppings of your choice.
Notes
Fresh corn tastes so good in this, but defrosted frozen corn kernels will work too.
If not vegetarian, you can use chicken broth or beef broth.
Adaptable. You can use other plant-based milk. If not vegan, then use regular milk instead in the recipe.
For a thinner soup, add an extra half to one cup of broth.
Stir in some corn starch if you want a thicker corn chowder.
For a richer soup, use plant-based heavy cream instead of plant-based milk.
Cook time does not include time for the Instant Pot to come up to pressure or for the pressure to release.
Storage - keep leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
