PRESSURE COOKER MEATBALLS & MARINARA RECIPE - (4.6/5)

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.
