This meatballs and rice recipe doesn\u2019t combine meatballs and cooked rice as an entree. Instead, the rice acts as a binder in the meatballs themselves. We’ve tested several dozen meatball recipes<\/a>, some made from scratch and some using store-bought meatballs<\/a>. This recipe is one of the quickest, despite being scratch-made, because it uses an Instant Pot or other electric pressure cooker. It\u2019s an easy way to put dinner on the table in well under 30 minutes.<\/p>\n In a bowl, combine the egg, rice, onion, parsley, salt and pepper. Crumble the ground beef over the rice mixture and mix them together lightly but thoroughly. Shape the beef mixture into 1 \u00bd-inch balls. Arrange the meatballs on a trivet in a 6-quart electric pressure cooker. Combine the condensed soup, water and Worcestershire sauce, and pour this mixture over the meatballs.<\/p>\n Lock the pressure cooker\u2019s lid and close its pressure release valve. Set it to cook for 10 minutes at high pressure. Once the 10-minute cooking cycle is complete, quick-release the pressure. Let the meatballs stand for 5 minutes before serving. If desired, serve the meatballs over rice and top them with additional chopped parsley.<\/p>\n Any leftover meatballs and sauce should be transferred to a food safe container with a tight-fitting lid, and kept in your refrigerator.<\/p>\n Yes, meatballs are always a good candidate for cooking ahead. They reheat nicely in their sauce, and the extra time gives opportunity for their flavors to develop fully. Feel free to make them 1 or 2 days ahead, and reheat them when mealtime rolls around.<\/p>\n Like most leftovers<\/a> they\u2019re good for 3 to 4 days in the fridge, provided you refrigerated them promptly after the meal. For longer-term storage, freeze the meatballs and sauce in meal-sized portions. If you\u2019ve packaged them well, they\u2019ll be good for 3 to 6 months.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, the candid answer to this question is \u201cProbably, yes.\u201d The recipe as written was tested and approved by our Test Kitchen, so review the instructions carefully and try again. It\u2019s all too easy to misread the instructions or measure an ingredient incorrectly, especially the first time you make a recipe. Both the egg and the rice act as binders to hold the meat together.<\/p>\n You sure can, though you\u2019ll need to change a few things. Start with beef that\u2019s no more than 80% lean. In a pressure cooker you can get away with leaner beef, because it cooks so quickly. On the stovetop you\u2019ll want that little bit of extra fat, to keep the meatballs juicy as they simmer. Skip the instant rice in favor of \u00bd cup of regular long-grain rice. You won\u2019t need an egg as a binder in these meatballs, because the long-grain rice is \u201cthirstier\u201d and binds the meat more reliably. Instead, add \u00bd cup of water to the meat mixture. Shape small meatballs, brown them in a deep skillet or Dutch oven, then add the sauce and simmer them for an hour.<\/p>\n We suggest serving them over hot, fresh rice, but any other cooked grain works just as well. So do noodles, or even soft polenta<\/a>. The only other thing you\u2019ll need to make a complete meal is a suitable vegetable side dish<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I first made these meatballs when our children were small, and they just loved them.
