Magic Bullet Spaghetti Sauce (Marinara)

Submitted by Tinkerbell

"This recipe for Im"meat"iate Spaghetti Sauce (Marinara)is posted from the Magic Bullet manual for a photo demo in the Kitchen & Gadgets Forum here on Food.com. I have abbreviated the instructions slightly for clarity. Note that this recipe calls for RAW meat. It's then cooked with the sauce in the microwave, but pre-cooking the meat in the Bullet cup and then proceeding with the recipe is also acceptable. Be sure to reduce the cooking time though."

• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 2

ingredients

• 8 ounces spaghetti noodles
• 1⁄4 cup chicken broth
• 10 -12 cherry tomatoes (or 1 regular tomato, quartered)
• 1 white pearl onion (or 1/4 cup chopped regular onion)
• 2 tablespoons red wine (optional, replace with broth or water if desired)
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 2 garlic cloves
• 2 sprigs basil
• 1⁄4 cup ground beef (or ground turkey)
• 1 pinch italian seasoning (optional)
• salt and pepper

directions

1. Start boiling water for pasta and cook per package directions.
2. Add all sauce ingredients in the order listed, to the TALL CUP and twist on the CROSS BLADE.
3. Place the cup on the Magic Bullet machine and press down on the cup for one second, then release pressure. Pause to let the ingredients settle, then quickly pulse again.
4. Repeat pulsing technique until you've reached a good consistency.
5. Twist off the cross blade and twist on the large-holed SHAKER/Steamer Top.
6. Place the cup in the microwave and cook on high for 8-10 minutes, or until the meat is cooked. Microwaves vary, so check the mixture at about 7 minutes. If it starts to look dry, use an oven mitt to remove the cup from the microwave, stir the mixture and add a little more wine or water. Return to microwave to finish cooking.
7. Serve over hot pasta.
