Spagetti Bolognese Recipe

Description

This is a perfect meal for a main course on a bright sunny day. This family-favorite pasta dinner just got even easier! Deliciously meaty bolognese sauce and tender spaghetti noodles cook beautifully in the Instant Pot® for a meal that's low on dishes and big on savory Italian flavors.

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 lb extra-lean (at least 90%) ground beef
• 2 cups chopped yellow onions
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup chopped celery
• cup chopped peeled carrots
• 2 cups beef broth
• 12 oz uncooked spaghetti, broken in half
• 1 can crushed tomatoes, undrained

Steps

1. On 6-quart Instant Pot®, select SAUTE; adjust to normal. Heat oil in insert. Add beef, onions and salt; cook 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thoroughly cooked. Stir in celery and carrots. Select CANCEL.

2. Stir broth into beef mixture.

3. Add spaghetti evenly over beef mixture. Spread tomatoes evenly over spaghetti. Secure lid; set pressure valve to SEALING. Select MANUAL; cook on high pressure 7 minutes. Select CANCEL. Set pressure valve to VENTING to quick-release pressure.

4. Using tongs, immediately lift, and stir mixture 1 to 2 minutes or until pasta is completely separated. Spaghetti will appear to be stuck together but will separate while stirring.
