Re: this board never gets used
I did stew the other night. Here's the recipe I sorta followed:
1 1/2 pounds beef stew meat
1TB shortening(I use oil)
1 tsp salt
dash pepper(I use more)
1/4 tsp paprika
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup onions( I think I ended up using two onions)
4 carrots, whole(I used a bag of baby carrots)
4 potatoes, medium, cut in halves
Brown the meat on all sides in the oil . Add salt, pepper, paprika and water and put lid on. Bring to pressure and cook 8 mins (on 15lbs pressure). Remove from heat and let cool naturally 5 mins and then decompress under faucet.
Add remaining ingredients. My pressure cooker allows you to fill half full, so I kept adding veggies until it was that full. Cover, bring to pressure and cook 6-8 mins (on 15 lbs pressure). Decompress instantly under faucet.
Prepare gravy recipe:
Stir 2 TB flour into 1/4 cup cold water until smooth. Add to stew liquid and simmer until it thickens. Put back in with stew and stir--dinner's ready!
