This is an excellent recipe thanks Bren! I too need the last minute recipes for my pressure cooker. I don't have an instant pot - anyone else using this with a standard stovetop pressure cooker should know that it will cook at 10 lbs pressure for 20 minutes and let the pressure drop naturally taking it off the burner. If you need it after 10 minutes you can release it then otherwise let it sit to no pressure. I didn't make any changes except to increase amounts proportionately. I did however use our homemade merlot wine and our homemade tomato paste along with homegrown veggies and spices - yum!!! The beef came from the store.:D Thanks for a wonderful addition to my recipe collection!
I made it and it came out phenomenal! I have an 8 qt. Instapot and made a bigger batch. I used 3 lbs. of meat instead of two. I just added a little more ingredients. This was my first meal in the Instapot. Other than adjustments for the portion size I followed the directions and it was perfect. I will definetly make it again. Oh one thing...the potatoes...don't cut them to small. quarter the potatoes.
I made this with stoup bones and at the end of the pressure release and thickening I added frozen kale. This was a good recipe to use when you have frozen stew meat or soup bones.
I had to delete the garlic & onion (wife is allergic) and make my own broth (onion & garlic free) otherwise unchanged. Using Asafoetida will replace the onion like flavor but is not of the onion family so safe for allergies or other onion/garlic restrictions. This recipe is super easy quick and a life saver when you forgot to thaw the meat!
I used frozen lamb stew meat and quartered unpeeled baby potatoes. Due to lacking a couple of ingredients in the house I skipped the bay leaves and celery and ended up substituting ketchup for tomato paste. It turned out wonderful!
Smells so good and can't wait for it to cool down so I can have some. I did take the advise of a commenter to cook meat and broth for 35 minutes then add potatoes, carrots, and celery for another 15 minutes. Potatoes and carrots not mushy this way but done. I also added another cup of water since I had lots of carrots. Oh some fresh bread or cornbread would be good with this mmmm
I left out the tomato paste (personal preference) but did everything else as written. Excellent!
Delicious! So easy to make. I'll be adding this to the family favorites!
I didn't have potatoes so I added green beans at the end. Also I used a pack of Lipton onion soup mix instead of the spices. It was great!
