These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

  1. **Due to the nature of pressure cooking there is always room for inconsistency. The times given here are based on 4 servings fresh. If you are using more servings you may need to increase your cooking time.**
  2. Evenly divide the cream cheese into cubes, creating 1 cube for each meatball. (Figure 4 meatballs per serving).
  3. Mix onions, ground beef, garlic, parsley, eggs, salt, bread crumbs and oregano well in a large bowl. Knead together.
  4. Using approximately .25 cups meat, flatten out a patty.
  5. Place a cream cheese cube in the middle of the meatball and wrap the meat around the cream cheese, sealing the cheese within the meatball.
  6. Saute meatballs and oil in Instant Pot in batches until browned.
  7. Place all meatballs in Instant Pot, trying to keep layers as even as possible. Pour water on top.
  8. Lock lid into place and seal steam nozzle. Cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
  9. Release pressure naturally for 5 minutes then release any remaining pressure.

    1. Hi Kelsey! That is an important question! We’re going to update that recipe to make it more clear! Each serving is 4 meatballs. So for 4 servings this would make 16 meatballs.
