Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 17

MEATBALLS:
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup whole milk
1 ounce Parmesan cheese, grated, 1/2 cup
3 tablespoons minced fresh parsley
1 large egg, beaten
1 pound meatloaf mix, ground beef and pork combo
SAUCE:
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, minced
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh oregano, or 2 teaspoons dried
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 (28-ounce) cans crushed tomatoes
Sugar
1/4 cup fresh basil (as a garnish)

Steps:

  • Make the sauce: Heat oil in pressure cooker pot over medium high heat (I use the browning cycle on my electric pressure cooker) until shimmering. Add onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in oregano, red pepper flakes and two-thirds of garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in crushed tomatoes, scraping up any browned bits. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes no longer taste raw, about 10 minutes. Season with sugar, salt and pepper to taste. Meanwhile: Mash panko and milk into paste in medium bowl with a fork. Gently mix in meatloaf mix, Parmesan, parsley, egg, remaining garlic, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper with hands until thoroughly combined. Shape mixture into 12 even-size meatballs. Gently nestle meatballs into sauce. Lock pressure-cooker lid in place and bring to high pressure over medium-high heat. As soon as the pot reaches high pressure, reduce heat to medium-low and cook for 5 minutes. adjusting heat as needed to maintain high pressure. NOTE: I just set my electric pressure cooker to medium pressure and everything turned out great. Remove pot from heat. Quick release pressure, then carefully remove lid, allowing steam to escape away from you. Before serving, stir in basil and season with additional sugar, salt and pepper to taste.

PRESSURE COOKER SPAGHETTI AND MEATBALLS



Pressure Cooker Spaghetti and Meatballs image

Spaghetti and meatballs isn't necessarily any faster when made in an electric pressure cooker, but it does take away a lot of hands-on work. And it can all be done in one pot instead of the usual two to three it would take on the stove. Here, the meatballs, which are not fried but cooked entirely in the sauce, are gently spiced and very tender - the height of kid-friendly cuisine. The ricotta topping is optional, but it makes the whole thing especially creamy and rich. If you have some homemade marinara sauce in the freezer, or a favorite store-bought kind, you can substitute 3 1/4 cups of it here. Olive fans take note: Adding 1/4 cup sliced pitted olives to the sauce will probably make you very happy come dinnertime.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, very thinly sliced
1/4 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 basil sprigs, plus more thinly sliced for serving
8 ounces spaghetti (not thin spaghetti), broken in half
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan, plus more for serving
1 cup ricotta (optional)
1 pound ground beef (or substitute veal, pork or turkey)
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons chopped basil
1 large egg
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 to 2 garlic cloves, finely grated or minced

Steps:

  • Set pressure cooker to the sauté function, and heat 2 tablespoons oil in the pot. Stir in garlic, red pepper and black pepper, and cook for 1 minute or until fragrant. Stir in tomatoes, salt and basil sprigs; cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes (lower the sauté function to low or briefly turn the machine off if the sauce splatters too much).
  • Meanwhile, make the meatballs: In a large bowl, mix together beef, bread crumbs, Parmesan, chopped basil, egg, salt and garlic. Roll into 1 1/4-inch balls.
  • Pour 1 cup water into sauce in pot, scraping up any browned bits on bottom of pot (if you don't do this, the burn light may turn on). Scatter uncooked spaghetti over the sauce. Drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon oil over spaghetti, stirring gently (try to keep the spaghetti on top of the sauce), then top with meatballs.
  • Cover and cook on high pressure for 5 minutes. Manually release the pressure, then remove the cover and stir to separate the spaghetti. Stir in 2 tablespoons Parmesan. At this point, the pasta will be almost but not quite cooked through. Place the top back on the pressure cooker (loosely) and let it sit for 3 to 10 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and spaghetti is al dente but not mushy.
  • Serve dolloped with ricotta, if using, and sprinkled with thinly sliced basil and more Parmesan if you like.

PRESSURE COOKER MEATBALLS



Pressure Cooker Meatballs image

For all you pressure cooker addicts like me, here is a great recipe for weeknight dinners...the leftovers are great re-heated. Of course you can serve without the noodles for a smorgasbord or pot-luck. Adapted from "125 Best Pressure Cooker Recipes" by Cinda Chavich (my favorite pressure cooker cookbook). She uses dill in her meatballs, I don't like dill, so I make mine with thyme and oregano. You can easily customize the type and amount of spices. I actually add a liberal dose of Hungarian Paprika to the sauce. Definitely mince the onion, a bigger chop does not mix well, as the meatballs are small. The sauce is more thin than thick, so sometimes I add a little "Wondra". Enjoy!

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 slice whole wheat bread
1/2 cup milk
1 lb extra lean ground beef
8 ounces ground pork
1 egg
1 small onion, minced
1 1/2 tablespoons dried thyme
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, soak bread in milk until absorbed. Using your hands, break up bread; mix in beef and pork. Stir in egg, minced onion, thyme, oregano and salt. Form into 3/4 inch (2 cm) balls. This is often a smaller size than you think! Set aside.
  • In a pressure cooker, melt butter over medium-high heat; stir in flour until moistened. Gradually whisk in beef broth and water. Bring to a simmer. Carefully transfer meatballs to sauce.
  • Lock the lid in place and bring cooker up to full pressure over medium -high heat. Reduce to medium-low, just to maintain even pressure, and cook for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and release pressure quickly. Stir in cream and simmer until sauce is creamy and thick. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve over cooked egg noodles, sprinkled with garnish of choice.

PRESSURE COOKER 30 MINUTE MARINARA SAUCE

Categories     Sauces

Time 35m

Yield 1 quart, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (28 ounce) can crushed plum tomatoes (I use Scaflani, Pastene or Hunts)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (use one that tastes good as some are bitter and have weird taste)
4 medium garlic cloves
1 small shallots or 1 small onion
1 teaspoon dried basil (can use 3 tbsp fresh basil)
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon thyme
red pepper flakes (to taste 1/4 tsp or so)
black pepper
sea salt
1 medium carrot

Steps:

  • Heat Pressure Cooker on medium heat and add olive oil.
  • Chop onion and garlic however fine you like and add to hot oil.
  • Cook for a minute do not brown!
  • Throw in the rest of your spices except salt.
  • Throw in the carrot( I leave it in large chunks and remove it but you may keep it in sauce if you like so you can cut it to whatever size you like or even mince it).
  • Add the can of Tomatoes and some water--I use about 1/4 of the tomato can full of water -- it gets thick so you need to add enough or it could stick and burn.
  • Put lid on cooker and bring to pressure. Turn down enough to keep it low but still have pressure in pot. Cook for 1/2 Hour. Turn off and bring pressure down by either quick release method or take off burner and let it naturally release.
  • Take of lid and taste --add salt, maybe a pinch of sugar if you want. You can also stir in some more EVOO at this point remove carrot (or not), Voila! Done!
  • *** I like it on Penne pasta with some grated Pecorino Romano and Parmesan cheese but you can use it on whatever you like. Lasagana, Veal Cutlet. Makes a good base for Clam Zuppa sauce or Tuna sauce.
