Instructions
- Sprinkle beef with salt and set aside. Set Instant Pot to "saute" function. Add oil. When oil is hot, add beef. Turn beef every 15-20 seconds or so until all sides are browned. You may want to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding.
- Add onions and sauté for another minute.
- Deglaze the pot with beef broth, scraping up any browned bits that may be stuck on the bottom. Add soup mix and paprika. Stir to combine.
- Place lid on Instant Pot, turn to close, and set tab to "sealing". Press "meat/stew" setting (or high pressure for 20 minutes). Allow to naturally release for 8-10 minutes before switching tab to "venting".Allow Instant Pot to release pressure and remove lid.Add carrots.
- Place lid back on the Instant Pot. Cook on high pressure for 2 minutes and quick release.Allow Instant Pot to release pressure and remove lid. Press "saute" function.
- Combine cornstarch and water, creating a "slurry".
- Slowly add to the Instant Pot, stirring constantly until thickened (you want a gravy consistency). Stir in 1 tablespoon "browning" sauce for color.
- Serve with egg noodles or mashed potatoes.
Notes
- Instant Pot Note: We use a 6-quart Instant Pot brand pressure cooker that we bought in 2016. Different or newer versions may be more sensitive to the "BURN" notice. If you are concerned about the burn notice, please refer to this article: "What Does 'Burn' Mean on My Instant Pot?"
- What Does 'Burn' Mean on My Instant Pot?
- Goulash can be stored in an airtight container and kept in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stove top on low heat until heated through.
- If you are wanting to make this into a freezer meal, leave the carrots out of the recipe and freeze after cooking for 2-5 months.
- Thaw the goulash overnight in the refrigerator before re-heating in a saucepan on the stove. Cook carrots separately and add before eating
