📝 Preparation Steps
1
Press the ‘saute’ button on the Instant Pot and allow it to preheat for about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Add a drizzle of oil to the insert, followed by the ground beef and onion. Chop meat with a wooden spoon as it browns, until about 90% cooked.
medium onion (, diced)1onion powder1 teaspoon
2
Add fresh garlic, tomato paste, dried seasonings, a teaspoon salt and pepper, and the sugar. Cook for ⏱️ 1 minute, stirring every few seconds. Press ‘cancel’ on the pot. Add canned tomatoes and sauce, crush tomatoes with a potato masher.

3
Break spaghetti in half and layer in the pot crosswise. Add in the chicken broth and give everything a good stir, pulling the meat up from the bottom of the pot (this will prevent the pot from scorching on the bottom as it pressurizes.) Push the noodles down into the liquid.
4
Place lid on the pot and lock into place. Turn the valve to the ‘sealing’ position. Pressure cook on high for ⏱️ 8 minutes, then manually release the pressure.
5
Use a large pasta fork to break up any clumps of pasta. Stir in 1/2 cup of parmesan and the fresh basil. Taste for salt and pepper, adjust as needed. Serve right away. The sauce will thicken as it stands.
