Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds beef stew meat
- 3 tablespoons oil
- 2 large potatoes
- 4 large carrots
- 1 large onion
- 14.5 ounces canned green beans with their liquid
- 29 ounces canned diced tomatoes (2 cans) with their liquid
- salt
- pepper
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- ⅓ cup cold water
Instructions
- Cut the beef stew meat, potatoes, carrots, and onions into bite size pieces.
- Set the instant pot to its Saute setting. Add the oil and stew meat. Stir and cook until the meat is well browned all over.
- Add the potatoes, carrots, onion, beans with their liquid, and tomatoes with their liquid.
- Add salt and pepper to taste. I use at least a teaspoon of salt in this recipe. That's a lot of stew to season, you know!
- Place the lid on the pressure cooker and make sure it's locked. If your model is equipped with a valve, check that it's in place. Set it to cook for 15 minutes on high pressure.
- At the end of the 15 minutes cooking time, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes followed by a quick release of any residual pressure. Open the top of the cooker and set it to its Saute function.
- Combine the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl. When the stew comes to the boil, add the cornstarch and water and stir until thickened. Reduce the heat to Simmer or Keep Warm.
- Serve over rice or noodles.
Notes
- Cut the stew meat, potatoes, and carrots into similar-sized pieces so they all cook in the same amount of time.
- To store, allow the stew to cool completely. For short-term storage, use an airtight container and place in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To freeze, place in a freezer-safe container and store for up to 3 months.
- To reheat - if frozen, allow the stew to thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Reheat in the microwave or in a heavy-bottomed pot over low heat on the stovetop.
