Instant Pot Mongolian Beef Noodles

Mmmm-mmm! These Instant Pot Mongolian beef noodles are so tasty! And the bonus is that they come together so quickly. I even had everything on hand at my house to make them without going to the store. That is always a good thing!

  • I used linguine noodles but you can also use spaghetti or fettuccine. For spaghetti I would cut the pressure cooking time down to 4 minutes.
  • You can find hoisin sauce in the Asian aisle at your grocery store. It’s sort of like Asian barbecue sauce.
  • Greg suggested that this would taste good with the addition of cabbage. I agree! Next time I am going to add in shredded cabbage on top of the noodles in the pressure cooker. Or if you like crunch you could add in raw cabbage after the pressure cooking time is up.
  • These noodles taste great when served with steamed broccoli.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • You can easily double this recipe. Double all the ingredients and keep the cooking time the same.
  • I used my 6 quart Instant Pot Duo 60 7 in 1*. You can also make this in your 8 or 3 quart pot with no changes.

Instant Pot Mongolian Beef Noodles

What you’ll need to make Instant Pot Mongolian Beef Noodles:

  • 1 pound lean ground beef–you can also use ground turkey or ground pork
  • 1 Tbsp minced ginger–freeze the leftovers wrapped up in foil. Next time you need ginger for a recipe you can easily grate it. Don’t worry about peeling off the skin.
  • 1 Tbsp minced garlic–I buy the big jar from Costco for convenience sake
  • 2 ¼ cups beef or chicken broth–you can also use 2 ¼ cups or water with 2 teaspoons of Better than Bouillon
  • 2 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce–I like low sodium so it’s not too salty
  • 1 Tbsp brown sugar–to balance out the flavors
  • 1 ½ Tbsp hoisin sauce–find is the Asian aisle
  • ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper–for a little heat
  • ⅛ tsp black pepper–for flavor
  • 8 ounces linguine–you can also use fettuccine or spaghetti
  • Sesame seeds and green onions, for garnish–for look and taste

How to make Instant Pot Mongolian Beef Noodles:

  1. Turn Instant Pot to saute setting. When display says HOT add in ground beef and break it up. Brown for about 5 minutes. Stir in the ginger and garlic for about 30 seconds. Pour in the broth and scrape bottom of pot so that nothing is sticking (to prevent burn message). Turn off Instant Pot. 
  2. In a small bowl stir together the soy sauce, brown sugar, hoisin, cayenne, black pepper. 
  3. Break the linguine noodles in half and scatter them into the pot. Press down to submerge as best as possible. 
  4. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the top. 
  5. Cover Instant Pot and secure the lid. Make sure valve is set to sealing. Set the manual/pressure cook button to 5 minutes. When time is up let pot sit for 5-10 minutes and then move valve to venting and remove the lid. 
  6. Stir well. Scoop into bowls and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions.

    How do I decide if I do natural release for 5 or 10 minutes- or something in between- that seems like a long time that could make the difference between the noodles being properly done and over cooked! Thanks for any clarification

      Usually when I say 5-10 it just means that sometimes foam will escape through the valve at 5 minutes and if it does you may want to wait 5 more minutes.

    If I used stewing beef or sliced round steak instead of ground beef would I need to cook longer?

      If it’s beef stew meat it may need a longer cooking time to get tender. But then I worry about the pasta being overdone. You could try the time listed in the recipe and see what happens or you could pre-cook the stew meat.

    I made this today. I had some leftover shredded pork, already cooked, added it with all the other ingredients except I used a bag of frozen carrots for the veggie AND I used three bags of ramen noodles (without the flavoring)! It turned out sooooo good! Ramen noodles are a great skinny noodle cooks in a minute!

    I just finished my second bowl. Fantastic! My wife and son loved it as well. The flavor is perfect. A little heat from the cayenne-not overwhelming at all. I added a little homemade sauerkraut to our second bowls for some crunch. Delicious! Thank you!

    This was amazing! Just swapped out cayenne for a tbls of sriracha and added fried cabbage and mushrooms at the end. It was great hit. My first time adding pasta/noodles to my Instant Pot and I was amazed how good they turned out!!

    First, I would like to say Thank you for taking a scary kitchen appliance and making it my best friend!! I made these noodles the other night and my family devoured them!! I took a chance and doubled the recipe and thank goodness I did! There was plenty to go around and plenty of leftovers for lunches and/or mid-day snacks. My ridiculously picky daughter couldn’t get enough of it and ate most of it. This will definitely be a recurring dinner in our house! Thanks again!!

    This was incredibly good, but my husband says “more noodles!” Lol 😂 Have you doubled the noodles, and if yes, should I double liquid and sauce? Thoughts please!

      I would double the liquid for sure and if you want lots of flavor then double the sauce too. I’m glad you all liked it!

    I do not have an instant pot. Can I make the recipes in your book in a slow
    Cooker.? Are directions included for slow cooker? I’m in no hurry

      Some of my recipe can be made in the slow cooker and some cannot. For my slow cooker recipes you can go here…https://www.365daysofcrockpot.com/recipes/?fwp_method=slow-cooker
      Some say “Instant Pot” but if you scroll to the recipe card the slow cooker instructions are listed in recipe card
