To make vegetarian pasta, don't eat grated turkey or beef.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="24" > the first step</h1>
Add olive oil and onion to the instant pan. Stir to "fry" and cook for 3 minutes or until fragrant. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="26" > the second step</h1>
Add the minced meat. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes until it turns brown and no longer pink. When cooking, use a wooden spatula to chop the meat.
Once cooked, close the ready-to-eat pan. Drain grease if needed.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="30" > the third step</h1>
Add 1/2 cup broth or water. Scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon or spatula; this will help prevent the meat from burning and sticking to the pan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="33" > the fourth step</h1>
Divide the spaghetti in half. Place in a pot and layer the noodles to form a criss-crossing shape. This will help reduce clumping.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="36" > the fifth step</h1>
Add the remaining broth or water, pasta sauce and canned tomatoes (with liquid). Pour these ingredients into the center of the pan. Again, this will minimize combustion.
Press down on the pasta until most, if not all, of the noodles are submerged. Do not stir the pasta.

If you're using a can from a store-bought jar, add it to the pot first. Pour the remaining broth into an empty jar, gently shake it to "rinse" it out, and then add to the instant food pot. If you're using homemade sauce, skip this step.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="42" > the sixth step</h1>
Close the lid and seal the valve. Set "Pressure Cooking" to a high level for 8 min. Instant pot takes about 10 minutes to reach the right pressure and then the countdown begins.
At the end of the 8 minutes, the instant pot will make a beeping sound. Use a quick release to release pressure. The instant can releases rapid pressure, so make sure your face or hands are not near the valve.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="46" > the seventh step</h1>
After a full pressure release, open the instant tank. The pasta will look very sticky. This is normal!
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="49" > the eighth step</h1>
Close the instant pot. Stir the pasta and let stand for 10 minutes. When it cools, the sauce thickens.
Your pasta can be enjoyed. Serve with Parmesan cheese, fresh basil and garlic bread.
