Put half cup of oil into instapot, and set to saute for 22 minutes. Put chopped onions, celery and carrots in and stir every now and then to keep it from sticking.
Add in garlic, cumin, coriander, salt and pepper. Saute for another 2 minutes, stirring well.
Pour in soup, water and chickpeas, and set to pressure cook, high, for 18 minutes. Allow to vent naturally.
