Multicooker meatballs in tomato sauce are tender, juicy and remarkably tasty homemade meat balls in a thick fragrant tomato sauce — and thanks to the multicooker they cook without any worries about burning or drying out. The main advantage of the multicooker is that the correct preset parameters completely remove the "human factor": the appliance controls temperature and time on its own, giving an ideal result. It's a great choice for a family lunch or dinner, especially when you want something hearty and at the same time tender. From ground meat with finely grated onion, an egg, rice or soaked bread, salt and spices form small meatballs. Brown in the multicooker bowl on the "Fry" setting until lightly golden, then pour over a hot tomato sauce of tomatoes, tomato paste, water and spices. Close the lid and run the "Stew" program for 30-40 minutes. Proportions for 500 g of ground meat inside.
Multicooker pork stew with vegetables is one of the most convenient and foolproof home dishes — it practically cooks itself: just load the ingredients into the bowl, select the program, and an hour later you have juicy, tender meat and vegetables in a thick, fragrant sauce. The main advantage of the multicooker is its enclosed space and gentle, even heat, which braise the meat in its own juices, prevent drying and let it absorb all the aromas of the vegetables and spices. Cut the pork into cubes, brown in the "Fry" setting with onion, then add carrot, bell pepper, potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, salt, spices and a little water. Close the lid and run the "Stew" program for 1-1.5 hours. Serve with fresh herbs. Proportions for 1 kg of pork inside.
