Pressure Cooker Mushroom Pot Roast Food

PRESSURE-COOKER MUSHROOM POT ROAST

Steps:

• Halve roast; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Select saute or browning setting on a 8-qt. electric pressure cooker. Adjust for medium heat; add 1-1/2 teaspoons oil. When oil is hot, brown a roast half on all sides. Remove; repeat with remaining beef and 1-1/2 teaspoons oil. Add wine to pressure cooker. Cook 2 minutes, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Press cancel. Return beef to pressure cooker., Add mushrooms, onions, broth, tomato sauce, parsnips, celery, carrots, garlic, bay leaves, thyme and chili powder. Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 60 minutes. Let pressure release naturally for 10 minutes; quick-release any remaining pressure. A thermometer inserted in beef should read at least 160°., Remove meat and vegetables to a serving platter; keep warm. Discard bay leaves. Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer back to pressure cooker. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into cooking juices. Select saute setting and adjust for low heat. Simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Serve with mashed potatoes, meat and vegetables. If desired, top with chopped parsley. , Freeze option: Place roast and vegetables in freezer containers; top with cooking juices. Cool and freeze. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a covered saucepan, stirring gently and adding a little broth if necessary.

PRESSURE COOKER POT ROAST

Steps:

• Season the beef generously all over with about 1 tablespoon salt. Using the sauté setting, warm the oil in a 6- to 8-quart electric pressure cooker. Add one chunk of the beef and sear one side until deeply browned, about 5 minutes. Remove the first chunk and repeat with the remaining chunk, searing one side. (You can brown more than one side of each chunk, but one side is enough to build flavor without spending too much time on this step.) If the pressure cooker gives you a "hot" error, simply turn it off and use residual heat to cook. When it cools, turn the sauté setting back on.
• Add the pearl onions and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is softened, about 2 minutes. Pour in the wine, vinegar and 1/2 cup water; season generously with black pepper and lightly with salt. Using a metal or wooden spoon or spatula, scrape up all the browned bits on the bottom of the pot. Turn off the sauté setting. Add the herbs and nestle the beef into the liquid. Cook on high pressure for 1 hour.
• Make the pickled onions, if desired: Bring the vinegar and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan. Add the pearl onions and a generous pinch of salt and cook, stirring, to dissolve the sugar and warm the onions through, about 1 minute. Remove the mixture from heat and set aside at room temperature to pickle for at least 1 hour. (You can make the pickled onions up to 5 days ahead; store them in a sealed container in the refrigerator.)
• Allow the pressure to reduce naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. Add the vegetables to the pot, tucking them below the liquid. Cook on high pressure until the beef and vegetables are both tender, an additional 4 minutes. Quick-release the pressure by twisting the pressure knob to vent, then open the lid. Using tongs and a slotted spoon, remove the beef and vegetables to a serving platter. Break the beef into large chunks to serve. At this point, you can simply drizzle some cooking liquid over the top of the beef and vegetables, and top with the drained, pickled pearl onions to serve. Discard the remaining cooking liquid or strain it, refrigerate it, discard the layer of fat and freeze the remaining liquid as beef stock.
• If you'd prefer a thicker gravy, strain the cooking liquid and return it to the pot. Using the sauté function, bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, combine the butter and flour in a small bowl and knead it together with your fingers until it is uniform, almost like a dough. Once the liquid is boiling, drop the butter-flour mixture into the pot, whisking well to combine. Let it bubble until it is lightly thickened, about 5 minutes, then drizzle some gravy over the pot roast and vegetables, and top with drained, pickled onions. Serve extra gravy on the side.

EASY PRESSURE COOKER POT ROAST

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pressure cooker over medium-high heat. Brown roast on all sides in the hot oil; season with pepper, seasoned salt, and onion powder.
• Pour in beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, add the quartered onion, and seal the lid. Bring the cooker up to full pressure. Reduce heat to low, maintaining full pressure, and cook for 30 minutes.
• Use the quick-release method to lower the pressure. Mix in carrots and potatoes, seal the lid again, and return the pressure cooker to the heat. Bring the cooker up to full pressure and cook for an additional 15 minutes. Use the quick-release method again and transfer the roast and vegetables to a serving dish.

Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes. Run under cold water to help release the pressure before unsealing the lid. You can use the juices as an au jus, or thicken with flour or cornstarch to make a yummy gravy.

• DO NOT ADD canned condensed Cream of Mushroom Soup during Step 2. The safety sensors of the new electric pressure cookers will give a "Burn" error if you do. (We'll add the condensed soup after pressure cooking.).
• For an electric pressure cooker, cook at High pressure for 40 minutes.
• DO NOT RUN COLD WATER OVER THE LID of an electric pressure cooker for quick release! Allow pressure to reduce naturally for 12 minutes, then you can do a quick release of remaining pressure.
• Add the Cream of Mushroom soup after pressure cooking, before the cornstarch step. If you want to make your own condensed cream of mushroom soup, "This Old Gal" recommends: 1) in a liquid measuring cup, whisk 1 cup cold milk with 2 Tablespoons cornstarch until well blended. 2) Add to pressure cooker pot, press SAUTE button. 3) Stir in 1 1/2 tablespoons butter, 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules (or Better than Bouillon), 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt, and a dash of pepper. Oh, and add a (drained) small can of mushrooms or 1/4 cup of sauteed mushrooms to make it "mushroom" soup. (Or, if you are a Mushroom Lover, saute 8 ounces of mushrooms on the stove, and add them to the pressure cooker pot at this point.) 4) Heat to a boil, stirring frequently. 5) Simmer on low for one minute more to thicken.
• After incorporating the cream of mushroom soup ingredient(s), decide if you still need to add the additional 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of cold water to reach desired consistency.
