Instant Pot Seafood and Sausage Gumbo

Believe it or not, the first time I tried making gumbo, it was a disaster.

2. Add the onions, bell peppers, celery, and garlic to the pot. Sauté for 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
3. Stir in the andouille sausage, Cajun seasoning, thyme, smoked paprika, and bay leaf. Cook for another 2 minutes to let the spices bloom.
