The cooker is quickly brought to high pressure and cook 5 minutes.
The pressure is released by running cold water over the cooker.

It is safe to open the pressure cooker when the pressure regulator has stopped moving and hissing. This ensures all the steam has been released. Never open the lid until all the pressure has been fully released.
