# Method:
01 - Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add chopped bacon and cook until crisp, about 3 to 4 minutes. Reserve one tablespoon of bacon pieces for garnish and keep remaining bacon and fat in the pot.
02 - Add minced garlic to the bacon fat and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
03 - Place ramen noodles in the pot, breaking them in half if needed. Pour in 2 cups of water and stir to fully submerge the noodles.
04 - Seal the Instant Pot lid and set to cook at high pressure for 1 minute. Perform a quick pressure release upon completion.
05 - While noodles cook, whisk together eggs, Parmesan cheese, heavy cream (if using), and black pepper in a separate bowl.
06 - Open the Instant Pot and quickly stir in the egg-Parmesan mixture with the hot noodles to form a creamy sauce. Season with salt to taste. Serve immediately garnished with reserved bacon, extra Parmesan, and fresh parsley.
