Peel and cut the rutabaga into 1 inch cubes.
Pour 1 cup of water in the Instant Pot insert, add in the steamer basket, then place rutabaga cubes on top.
Season with salt and add in the nutmeg.
Put the lid on, lock and turn the valve to the sealing (not venting) position.
Select the manual or pressure cook button, set to high pressure for 5 mins, or up to 8 for larger cubes.
When cook time is done, perform a quick pressure release.
Decant the Instant Pot rutabaga to a bowl and then mash.
Top with herbs and spices of your choice (if desired) and serve.

Using nutmeg makes this so warming and fragrant. It brings such a lot of flavour to the dish.
You could also add other spices or seasonings such as black pepper, cloves, thyme or cilantro. Consider what you are serving it with and what flavours complement which dishes.
Please do a quick pressure release.
If not vegan, feel free to add in some butter to make the mash a little creamier.

Chef's tip: the cooking time listed does not include time for the Instant Pot to come up to pressure or for the pressure to release.
