Report

Share:
Ingredients
- 2 pounds (900g) beef cut into 2-inch cubes
- 2 potatoes cubed
- 4 carrots cut into thick rounds
- 2 stalks celery sliced
- 2 cups (500ml) beef broth hot
- ¼ cup (60ml) tomato puree or tomato passata
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients into the Instant Pot insert and stir to combine.
- Place the lid on and turn the valve to sealing position. Select the stew setting and cook until done.
- Allow for a natural pressure release (about 10-15 minutes) before opening.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed, then serve.
Notes
- Opt for tougher cuts like chuck roast, stew meat, or brisket. These cuts become tender and flavorful when cooked under pressure and are often less expensive.
- To make the prep work for your instapot beef stew even more simple, you can buy pre-cubed beef stew meat, or just ask your butcher to cut it into cubes for you. Make sure it’s cut into bigger size pieces.
- Make sure to cut the vegetables in bigger chunks so they don’t fall apart.
- Browning the Instant Pot stew meat first adds a nice depth of flavor.
- For the best results and great meat texture, you want to naturally release the pressure for the time stated.
- Choose a high-quality beef or vegetable broth to enhance the stew's flavor. Homemade broth is great if you have it.
- Do make sure to deglaze the pot after browning the meat to avoid having the burn notice. Use soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, or red wine for an even more flavorful beef stew.
- Use a wooden spoon to deglaze. This prevents scratching the inner pot.
- Serve with mashed potatoes or crusty bread to mop up all the flavorful gravy.
- Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color.
- If you prefer a thicker stew, mix a few tablespoons of flour or cornstarch with cold water and stir it into the stew. Use the "Sauté" function to thicken the broth.
- There are 10 WW Blue Plan SmartPoints in a serving of this.
