Instructions

Set your Ninja Foodi to the Saute function, under the medium-high heat setting.
Add olive oil, chopped onion, and garlic, and fry for 2-5 minutes, or until fragrant.
Add the minced meat and carrot, and allow the meat to brown. Use a spatula or a wooden spoon to break the meat into smaller pieces.
Add tomato paste, salt, black pepper, Italian seasoning, basil, and thyme. Stir and cook for a further 5 minutes. Useful Tip: taste and adjust the seasoning at this point as it will be difficult to season once the sauce gets absorbed into the spaghetti.
Add the brown sugar and beef stock (or water) then combine. Break the spaghetti into thirds or half and add them on top of the meat sauce.
Top with the canned tomatoes or jar sauce, but do not stir.
Using the pressure cooker lid, close your Ninja Foodi and turn the nozzle to the SEAL setting. Pressure cook on high for 7 minutes.
Once the cooking time is up, do a quick pressure release to release the pressure. Remove the lid and allow it to rest for 3 minutes so any remaining liquid gets absorbed into the noodles.
Carefully stir to combine, garnish if preferred, then serve and enjoy.

Notes

Use a teaspoon of garlic powder in place of fresh garlic.
The brown sugar helps cut out the acidity in the tomatoes. This is optional so feel free to leave it out if you prefer.
Garnish your spaghetti bolognese with chopped herbs, or grated Parmesan cheese.
