Waiting allows for some evaporation, and that slight cooling ensures the cream won’t curdle and the cheese won’t clump.īe careful of the flour in step 4, it can settle to the bottom of the pot and cause a burn notice. If you do decide to add the flour (I’m not sure it will need it), add it at the end in a slurry with the cream. You know to cook the recipe for half the amount of time recommended on the box of shells, right? It will probably be pretty soupy when you first remove the lid, but give it a stir and let it sit for 1-2 minutes, then stir in the cream and cheese, and it should thicken up nicely. You can always add a little more liquid at the end, if needed.

Because this recipe has that, plus 2 cups of tomato paste, I think it’ll be fine with the amounts of liquid in the recipe. Generally, you need 2 cups of liquid for every 4 ounces of pasta when cooking in the IP, just for the pasta.

Either way will work, but I think the beef might be more tender if it’s set aside after cooking, as Chungah suggests. It looks so delicious, and I know it will work! I haven’t decided yet whether to reserve the beef after browning it and add it back at the end, or leave it in the pot.

I’m going to make this one in my IP, too. In case anyone else was confused when making this. I then add in the heavy cream, meat, and shredded cheese last. Then I pour the reduced sauce over the pasta that has been drained and put in a big pot. Then I put it on the stove in a pan and add seasonings. The meat is set aside so what are you supposed to “add” the onions and stuff to? Winging it for myself, I put the beef stock, tomato sauce, and flour all together in a bowl and whisk to prevent clumps. One recommendation- the instructions are not clear in steps 3, 4, and 5 what you are adding the stuff to. This recipe dirties lots of pots and pans to make but is worth it. Definitely season your meat well and it gives a more robust flavor. Tried this recipe with penne pasta which was fine but shells are best. Have considered adding spinach leaves but haven’t tried yet. I also put the garlic salt, italian seasoning, and a dash of pepper in the sauce. I do however use garlic powder, italian seasoning, and a touch of Lawry’s salt and some pepper in the meat to taste. I personally leave out the diced onion and garlic when I make this and have never tried it with it. Otherwise sometimes it can be a touch greasy, but taste is still great. If you don’t want to spend more on leaner meat then just drain it well to get all the fat out. A tip I have is to make sure to drain your meat well or get a leaner cut. I make this for myself and eat it basically all week (college student here!). Super filling and goes a LONG way! When both of us eat (he is a good eater), I still have plenty left over for myself to eat maybe another 2-3 times. It is a hearty meal that my fiance and I both love. I have made this recipe 3 times and love it, about to make it for the 4th time this week.
