Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a pressure cooker over medium-high heat.
  2. Brown the meat cubes on all sides until sealed and golden.
  3. Add the chopped potatoes, carrots, and onions to the cooker.
  4. Add the bay leaf, salt, pepper, and water.
  5. Secure the lid and bring to pressure.
  6. Once the cooker begins jiggling, reduce heat to maintain pressure and cook for 15 minutes.
  7. Turn off heat and let pressure release naturally or use quick release by running cool water over the lid valve if your model allows.
  8. Carefully open the lid and remove the bay leaf.
  9. If a thicker consistency is desired, mix flour with a small amount of cold water to form a slurry.
  10. Stir the slurry into the stew and cook on low heat for a few minutes until thickened.

Note

Always ensure the bay leaf is removed before serving to avoid choking hazards.

For a richer flavor, you can substitute water with beef or chicken broth.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.

If using a different type of meat, adjust cooking time accordingly; tougher cuts may require longer pressure cooking.

The flour slurry helps thicken the juices; add gradually to reach desired consistency.
