Instructions
Mix all the ingredients for the meatballs and shape into 8-10 meatballs and place in single layer in the Instant Pot.
Mix all the ingredients for the sauce together in a bowl and pour over meatballs.
Set it at High Pressure for 15 minutes, let it release pressure naturally.
Open the lid and gently remove the meatballs.
Use an immersion blender to get the sauce smooth (you could skip this but I had some rice and meat in the sauce and I wanted it smooth.
Pour it over the meatballs, garnish with parsley if desired and serve.
