Equipment
- pressure cooker
Ingredients
- 500 g beef chunks any stewing cut works well
- 2 medium white potatoes thickly sliced
- 300 ml water
- 1 beef stock cube or 1 tsp beef stock powder
- 2 tbsp rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp garlic oil
- 1 tsp ground ginger
Instructions
- Turn the pressure cooker to saute mode and sear the beef so it's just cooked lightly on the outside.
- Add all the ingredients to the pressure cooker.
- Put to high pressure and cook for 40 minutes.
- Once done let the pressure release naturally and check the beef tenderness.
- If the beef is done, drain most of the liquid but still leaving some, this will be made in to the sauce.
- I squashed some of the potatoes to make the gravy thicker. If you want you can add corn flour or flour to thicken.
