Instant Pot 5252246 Official Large Mesh Steamer Basket

Pour water into the pot. Insert steamer basket. Pour in meatballs. Make sure the meatballs are all around the steamer. Place lid on the pot. Close valve. Set to pressure cook and set timer to 6 minutes.

Once the instant pot stops counting and beeps; release pressure. Remove meatballs to a bowl. Drain liquid from instant pot. Add meatballs back to the pot.

Pour mixture over meatballs. Stir lightly until the sauce starts to thicken. Once it thickens turn off instant pot. Serve meatballs over rice topped with spring onions and sesame seeds.
