Instant Pot Homemade Spaghetti Sauce With Fresh Tomatoes
Nothing beats the taste of homemade spaghetti sauce, especially when it's made with fresh tomatoes. If you're looking for a simple, easy, and delicious recipe for spaghetti sauce, look no further than your Instant Pot. With just a few ingredients, you can have a rich and flavorful sauce that's perfect for spaghetti, lasagna, or any other pasta dish.
Ingredients:
- 5-6 large fresh tomatoes, chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup red wine (optional)
Instructions:
Step 1: Saute the Onion and Garlic
Set your Instant Pot to saute mode and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Saute for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
Step 2: Add the Tomatoes and Spices
Add the chopped tomatoes, dried basil, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to the Instant Pot. Stir everything together until the tomatoes are coated in the spices.
Step 3: Pressure Cook
Secure the lid on your Instant Pot and make sure the vent is set to "sealing." Set the Instant Pot to manual mode and pressure cook on high for 10 minutes. Once the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes before manually releasing any remaining pressure.
Step 4: Blend the Sauce
Use an immersion blender to blend the sauce until it's smooth and creamy. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can transfer the sauce to a blender and blend it in batches.
Step 5: Add Red Wine (optional)
If you'd like to add a little extra flavor to your sauce, you can add 1/4 cup of red wine at this point. Stir the wine into the sauce and let it simmer for a few more minutes.
