I put this together late on a Sunday night and it was so good, I just had to share it with you. I ate it along with a glass of red wine, but if eaten with a salad, it would be a nice solo lunch.

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 onion, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb ground meat (beef or turkey)

  • While the meatballs are cooking, set the instant pot to saute mode and throw in the olive oil, onion and garlic until soft.
  • Add in the ground meat, salt and pepper and cook until well browned. Deglaze the pan with a little less than a 1/4 cup of water. Just make sure nothing is stuck on the bottom.
  • Pour in the pasta sauce and add 1 jar + 1/2 jar of water. Stir well. Turn off the instant pot.
  • Add the pasta on top of the meat sauce but do not stir it around. Just push it down to fully submerge.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, measure and prepare all your ingredients. This will make the cooking process smoother and more efficient.
  • Use the Best Ingredients You Can Afford: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will make a big difference in the flavor of your pasta dish.
  • Don't Overcook the Pasta: Cook the pasta al dente, so that it still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta is mushy and unpleasant.
  • Save Some Pasta Water: Reserve about 1/2 cup of the pasta water before you drain the pasta. This can be used to loosen the sauce or to add creaminess to the dish.
  • Season the Pasta Water: Add salt to the pasta water before you cook the pasta. This will help to flavor the pasta.
  • Don't Crowd the Pan: When you're cooking the pasta, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the pasta from cooking evenly.
  • Use a Large Pan: When you're making a sauce, use a large pan so that the sauce has plenty of room to simmer.
  • Simmer the Sauce: Simmer the sauce for at least 15 minutes, or until it has thickened and the flavors have melded together.
  • Garnish the Pasta: Before serving, garnish the pasta with fresh herbs, grated cheese, or a drizzle of olive oil.

Conclusion:

Making a delicious pasta dish at home is easy and rewarding! Once you've mastered the basics, you'll be able to create endless variations of this classic dish. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give one of these recipes a try!
