Ingredients

Servings
  • 200 g chopped bacon
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 5 minced garlic cloves
  • 1.5 cups red wine: I like to use pinot noir
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • 2 tbsp all purpose flour
  • 80 g tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 2 lbs stew meat
  • 2 carrots sliced into half-moons
  • 1 bouquet garni thyme, bay leaf, and parsley, tied together with string. If you do not have fresh herbs, then I recommend adding some dried herbs instead.

Instructions

  1. Sauté bacon until golden brown. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon and set it aside on a plate.
  2. Without washing your pan and using the remaining bacon fat, sauté onions until soft, add garlic, and sauté for one more minute. You may add a drizzle of olive oil to prevent sticking if necessary.
  3. Add wine and scrape the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Let the wine evaporate to 1/3 of the initial amount.
  4. Stir in 2 tbsp of flour, cook for 1-2 minutes, then turn off the heat.
  5. Add the remaining ingredients (tomato sauce, salt, beef, water, the bouquet garni, or dried herbs if using, and the reserved bacon), excluding the carrots.
  6. Pressure cook on high for 25 minutes. Quickly release, add carrots, and cook for another 10 minutes.
  7. Quick release again, serve, and enjoy!

Notes

  • *Letting the wine evaporate is the most important step of this recipe. You see when you make Beef Bourguignon traditionally, it does evaporate during the entire slow-cooking process. If you simply add the wine and cover your pan without letting the wine evaporate, your recipe will taste weird. I know because I have made this recipe multiple times until I got to a version that I liked and am sharing with you. So, make sure that you let it evaporate.
  • *If you do not have dried herbs, or fresh herbs you can add fresh frozen herbs at the end. That is what I did today.
