Ingredients
Low calorie spray oil
400gm lean minced beef, less than 5% fat
1 onion, peeled and finely diced
Frozen chopped garlic to taste
400gm can chopped tomatoes
500gm carton passata
400ml beef stock
1tbsp dried Italian mixed herbs
500gm pack dried pasta shapes

Method
1. Select Sauté or Browning on your pressure cooker and allow it to heat up.

2. Spray the Pressure Cooker cooking pot with low calorie spray oil and add the minced beef. Break into pieces with a wooden spoon as you brown the mince. After a couple of minutes, add the onion and garlic and sauté until the mince is browned all over.

3. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Press down on any pasta sticking up out of the sauce with a wooden spoon, adding a little more water if necessary to ensure all the pasta is submerged.

4. Lock on the lid and close the Pressure Valve. 

5. Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes. When the beep sounds, allow a 5 minute natural release, then very carefully do a quick release to release any remaining pressure. Stir well and serve.
