Instant Pot Cooking Spaghetti And Meatballs

Now that you have your ingredients, let's get started with the cooking process:

  1. Begin by making the meatballs. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free bread crumbs, egg, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix well.
  2. Form the mixture into meatballs, about 1 inch in diameter.
  3. Turn on your Instant Pot and select the "Saute" function. Once the pot is hot, add the olive oil, onion, and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add the meatballs to the pot and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until they are browned on the outside.
  5. Add the gluten-free spaghetti to the pot, breaking it in half if necessary to fit. Pour the gluten-free marinara sauce and water over the spaghetti and meatballs.
  6. Close the Instant Pot and set it to "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" mode for 8 minutes.
  7. Once the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then use the quick-release valve to release any remaining pressure.
  8. Open the Instant Pot and stir the spaghetti and meatballs. Serve hot, garnished with chopped fresh basil.
