INSTANT POT LASAGNA

In this video I show you how to make lasagna in your Instant Pot.
Shopping List:
1 lb. ground chuck beef 80/20
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tsp. dried basil
1 onion (diced)
1 tsp. minced garlic
2 cups spaghetti sauce, divided
1 pint ricotta cheese
1 beaten egg
¼ cup grated parmesan cheese
1 (16 ounce) package oven-ready lasagna noodles
2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese, divided
1 cup water
2 tbsp. olive oil
Directions:
Press the saute button and select high heat.
When the display reads "hot" add the oil and onions. Sauté 5-7 minutes.
Add the ground beef seasoning with salt and pepper to taste and cook until browned. Add the dried basil. Add the garlic and stir about 30-45 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sauce and stir. Bring to a simmer.
When done, transfer to a bowl and set aside.
Press the cancel button.
Add the water and scrape the bottom to deglaze.
Mix the egg, parmesan, 1/2 of the mozzarella and Ricota cheeses together.
Brush on a little oil on the bottom of a 7 inch cake pan.
Break the noodles (you have to break them into pieces to fit the pan. It don't have to be pretty).
Layer in this manner: Oil, noodles, 1/3 meat sauce, Ricota, noodles, 1/3 meat sauce, ricota, noodles, 1/3 meat sauce. (smooth each layer as you go)
Cover pan tightly with aluminum foil.
Place a trivet in the bottom of the Instant Pot. Add 1 cups of water on top of the trivet. Gently place your foil wrapped lasagna on top of the trivet.
Push the PRESSURE COOK or MANUAL button and set the timer for 24 minutes on high pressure.
When it is done, let it release on its own for 15 minutes then turn the knob to VENTING to release all of the pressure.
When the pressure is out, remove the lid and take out the lasagna.
Remove the foil and add 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese and parmesan to the top and broil in the oven for 2 minutes until the cheese it bubbly on top and slightly browned.
Let it cool for at least 10-15 minutes before serving.

[@stephaniebunch2023]

Why don't you just layer it in the pot itself?

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

You could, but because of the wet environment because of the steam, it might come out soggy. That’s why I covered with foil. Thanks for watching.

instant pot frozen family pac walmart : can i break the large piece into small ones, dump it all in my instant pot ad 2 cups of water close the lid pressure cook ??? minutes and it be done or NOT???????? thats the video im looking for .. can it be done and correct cook time would be nice.. thank you, to who ever responds ..

[@RICHARDINTHEKITCHEN]

Hi. I've never done that, but it can be done. I presume you are asking if frozen lasagna can be cooked in the IP. Yes you can. What I would do is add 1 1/2 cups cool water to the pot. Place the frozen lasagna on a trivet and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes then allow 10 minutes natural release. If any pressure is left then do a quick release. Thanks for watching. If you do it please let me know how if came out.
