There’s something so cozy and homey about spaghetti and meatballs. It’s just one of those dishes that screams comfort food like mom used to make.

Except I almost never make it at home. Mainly because it seems like there are 8 thousands steps involved and another 7 thousand dishes to clean.

But not to worry.

We now have an IP version that keeps it to a one pot wonder.

The meatballs get seared right in the Instant Pot, and the uncooked spaghetti noodles will cook right along with everything else.

It’s genius, I know, as everything just soaks and cooks right in the pasta sauce!

30 minutes20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cups beef stock
  • 12 ounces spaghetti, broken in half
  • 1 (24-ounce) jar tomato basil pasta sauce
  • 1/3 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

For the meatballs

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1/2 pound Italian sausage, casing removed
  • 1/2 cup Panko
  • 3 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef, sausage, Panko, milk, egg, Italian seasoning and garlic; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Using a wooden spoon or clean hands, stir until well combined. Roll the mixture into 1-to-1-1/2-inch meatballs, forming about 24 meatballs.
  2. Set a 6-qt Instant Pot® to the high saute setting. Heat olive oil; working in batches, add meatballs, and cook until all sides are browned, about 4-5 minutes. Return all meatballs to the Instant Pot®.
  3. Stir in beef stock, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  4. Add spaghetti; stir in pasta sauce until evenly coated. Select manual setting; adjust pressure to high, and set time for 8 minutes. When finished cooking, quick-release pressure according to manufacturer’s directions.
  5. Gently stir mixture until spaghetti is completely separated, about 1 minute. Let stand 5 minutes.
  6. Serve immediately, garnished with basil and Parmesan, if desired.
