Instructions
- Peel and slice an onion and sauté in the instant pot with extra virgin olive oil.
- Cancel sauté and add the frozen meatballs.
- Half your spaghetti and spread over the frozen meatballs making sure the meatballs are well covered in the spaghetti.
- In a mixing bowl add tinned tomatoes, tomato sauce and mix in the seasonings.
- Pour the mixture over the spaghetti and spread out with a spoon.
- Then pour over your water to make sure everything is well covered. Then place the lid on the instant pot, set the valve to sealing and cook for 3 minutes on manual or pressure cook. Then do a 5 minute natural pressure release, before releasing the rest of the pressure.
- When you open the lid, it will be like soup, give it a good stir with tongs and it will naturally thicken as you stir and then serve.
Notes
- Layers. Its important that you follow the layers instructions above and don’t stir before pressure cooking. Otherwise the meatballs and spaghetti will stick and it wont go to pressure.
- Swaps. Did you know a true Italian doesn’t do spaghetti and meatballs? Instead, they do other pasta with meatballs because it sticks to the pasta better. You can also swap spaghetti for any other pasta.
