Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite-sized pieces
salt and pepper to taste
3 tablespoons avocado oil, divided, or as needed
8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms
1 ½ cups roughly chopped carrots
1 ½ cups roughly chopped onions
1 cup roughly chopped celery
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup dry red wine
⅔ cup pearl barley, rinsed
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 bay leaves
½ teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon beef bouillon base
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or more to taste
6 cups no-salt-added beef broth

Steps:

  • Generously season beef with salt and pepper.
  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Heat 1 tablespoon avocado oil and tilt the pot to distribute the oil evenly. Once oil shimmers, add 1/2 the beef and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer browned beef to a bowl and repeat with remaining beef.
  • Heat another tablespoon oil in the Instant Pot®; when oil shimmers, add mushrooms. Cook mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until slightly brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms to the bowl with the beef. Add 1 tablespoon avocado oil to the pot and cook carrots, onions, and celery until onions begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until just fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits, and cook until wine has almost evaporated, 3 to 5 minutes. Return browned beef and mushrooms to the pot. Stir in barley, tomato paste, bay leaves, thyme, bouillon base, red pepper flakes, and beef broth. Stir until well combined.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 30 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions for 15 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove and discard bay leaves. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt.

VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP - PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE- BILL KNAPP'S



Vegetable Beef Soup - Pressure Cooker Recipe- Bill Knapp's image

One of my memories of going to Bill Knapp's was looking forward to having a bowl of their delicious vegetable soup. This recipe is not spot on, but I feel it's close, but nevertheless satisfying. I use a pressure cooker when preparing this recipe. The beef nearly melts in your mouth and from start to finish in about an hour. I got the recipe from a newspaper article, I made a couple of minor changes to the recipe and use the pressure cooking method instead of conventional method.
