Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

½ lb ground beef
1 medium white onion, diced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons dried oregano
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
2 cups marinara sauce
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 ½ cups low-moisture mozzarella, divided
¾ cup grated parmesan cheese, divided
1 cup fresh parsley, minced, loosely packed
1 large egg, beaten
1 teaspoon olive oil
10 lasagna noodles, uncooked
1 cup water

Steps:

  • Set the Instant-Pot to sauté. Add the ground beef and cook for 5-6 minutes, until no longer pink. Add the onion, garlic, salt, oregano, and red pepper flakes and cook for 3-4 minutes more, until the onions are translucent. Add the tomato sauce and stir to combine, then carefully remove the insert from the Instant-Pot. Let cool for 5 minutes, then transfer the tomato sauce to a bowl and wash and dry the insert.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the ricotta, 1 cup (100 G) of mozzarella, ½ cup (55 G) of Parmesan, the parsley, and egg. Mix well.
  • Add the olive oil to a 7-inch (17 cm) springform pan and brush in an even layer over the bottom.

Add another layer of noodles, sauce, and the rest of the ricotta. Finish with the remaining noodles and sauce. Cover the pan tightly with foil.
  • Return the insert to the Instant-Pot and pour in the water. Place pan with the lasagna on a steamer rack trivet and carefully lower into the pot. Cover with the lid and twist to lock. Turn the steam valve to "sealing". Set to high pressure and cook for 24 minutes (it will take about 5 minutes to heat and pressurize).
  • Once the cook time is finished, vent naturally for 15 minutes, then turn the quick release steam valve to "venting" and when the float valve has fully dropped, open the pressure cooker and carefully lift out the lasagna.
  • Remove the foil and sprinkle top of the lasagna with the remaining ½ cup (50 G) mozzarella and ¼ cup (25 G) Parmesan.

INSTANT POT® LASAGNA SOUP



Instant Pot® Lasagna Soup image

Ever wondered what to do with that last little bit of marinara sauce or those broken lasagna noodles? Well, I've got you covered!

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Noodle Soup Recipes

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (4 ounce) mild Italian sausage link, casing removed
1 pound ground sirloin
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup finely chopped onion
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 (32 ounce) can low-sodium chicken broth
24 ounces marinara sauce
8 lasagna noodles, broken into pieces
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 teaspoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add sausage and ground beef to the pot and until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain and discard grease and set meat aside. Add olive oil and swirl to insure the bottom of the pot is evenly coated. Add onions and cook until just soft, but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour in chicken broth and deglaze the pot, scraping up the brown bits from the bottom. Pour in marinara sauce. Add meat mixture and season with salt and pepper. Stir to combine. Add lasagna noodles, making sure that they are completely submerged in sauce. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 3 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Taste and adjust salt, if necessary. Ladle into bowls and top each with 1 teaspoon Parmesan cheese.

Tips:

  • To make the lasagna noodles easier to work with, cook them for half the time recommended on the package.
  • If you don't have a meat grinder, you can brown the beef and pork in a skillet over medium heat until cooked through, then drain off the grease.
  • Feel free to customize the lasagna with your favorite vegetables. Some good options include spinach, mushrooms, and zucchini.
  • If you're using a different type of cheese, such as mozzarella or cheddar, you may need to adjust the cooking time. Mozzarella will melt more quickly than Parmesan, so you may need to cook the lasagna for a shorter amount of time.
  • Let the lasagna rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the flavors to meld and the lasagna to set.

Conclusion:

Sloppy lasagna is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It's also a great way to use up leftover meat and vegetables. With its hearty filling and cheesy topping, this lasagna is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
