Braised Pot Roast
Report
Is there anything more comforting than Braised Pot Roast? Lean pieces of beef are first seared in hot oil, then stewed in beef stock and vegetables. The result is a fork tender, slightly sweetened beef Pot Roast. The only thing left is to make mashed potatoes!

Ingredients
- 2½ lbs beef, suitable for stewing such as top sirloin, chuck roast, or point cut brisket.
- 16 oz beef stock
- 1 onion
- 1 lb carrots
- 1 lb parsnips
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp tomato paste (optional)

Instructions
- Push the sauté button on the Instant Pot. Add olive oil and allow it to get hot. Add the beef to sear. Turn beef pieces so that each side turns brown. Cook in batches.
- Peel and chop the onion while the beef is searing.
- Remove the beef pieces from the Instant Pot. Place on a plate to catch the juices.
- Add the chopped onion to the Instant Pot and stir well. The juice in the onion should unstick any stuck on beef bits.
- While the onion is cooking, peel the carrots and parsnips.
- Chop them into large chunks.
- Add the beef stock to the sautéed onions and stir. If adding tomato paste, then add it now.
- Return the beef pieces and juices back to the Instant Pot. Press the slow cook button on the Instant Pot to start the simmering part of the recipe.
- Add the carrots and parsnips to the Instant Pot and arrange over the beef, ensuring that the beef pieces are submerged in stock. Cook for 3 hours or until the meat feels tender.
