Course: Main Course
Servings: 6

Equipment

  • Instant Pot

Ingredients

  • 16 oz Spaghetti
  • 26 oz Baby bella mushrooms
  • 1 Yellow onion
  • 8 cloves Minced Garlic
  • 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 6 cup Baby Spinach
  • 1 cup Half and Half
  • ½ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 2 tbsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Crushed Red Pepper

Instructions

Sauté Vegetables

  • Put instant pot on sauté mode, add butter and olive oil to the pot. Once its melted, add chopped onions and minced garlic. Keep sautéing till the raw smell of the onions and garlic goes away and onions are translucent.
  • Add chopped mushrooms, 1 tbsp of salt and sauté more. The water from mushroom will start to separate. Keep sautéing until all the moisture is cooked away.
  • NO INSTANT POT - if you don't have instant pot, don't worry, follow sauté Vegetables steps in the pan!

Cook Spaghetti

  • Once all the mushroom moisture is cooked away from the pot, break uncooked spaghetti in half and add it to the pot. Add enough water to cover the spaghetti, and some more (½ cup more). We want to make sure that there is enough moisture once the spaghetti is cooked. Stir everything well.
  • Set Instant Pot to pressure cook on low, set the timer to 6 minutes. The cook time on instant pot is supposed to be half as what the spaghetti box says in the instructions. Once the Instant pot is done cooking spaghetti, let the pressure release naturally (or let it sit for 15 min, before you open the Instant Pot).
  • After you open the lid, you'll see good amount of liquid in there. Its a good thing. That will help with enough sauce in the spaghetti. Add cut baby spinach and stir it very well. Keep stirring it until the spinach is wilted.
  • NO INSTANT POT - if you are using pan instead of instant pot, add cooked spaghetti in the sautéed vegetables in the pan. Add one cup of hot pasta water that you get from boiling spaghetti. Add cut baby spinach and stir it very well until the spinach is wilted. Keep stirring it until the spinach is wilted.

Season and serve!

  • Add 1 tbsp of salt (or as per taste), 1 tbsp of garlic powder, 1 tsp of black pepper, 1 tsp of crushed red pepper, ½ cup Grated Parmesan Cheese and 1 cup half and half. Stir is very well. If the spaghetti seems to get dry, add some water or more half and half to it.
  • Serve it while its hot. Enjoy!
