• Stir the meat, letting it brown on all sides. Add the chopped garlic, stir for 1 minute, then add the onions, carrots, celery, potatoes, salt, pepper, parsley, water and optional beef bouillon(the bouillon gives a stronger flavor - you can also wait to see how it comes out, and if you feel that it's not flavorful enough, you can add the beef bouillon and boil the stew for a minute or so).
• Lock the pressure cooker lid in place and bring to high pressure over high heat.
• Cook 15 minutes.
• Cool pot immediately and serve. ENJOY!

PRESSURE COOKER BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Have on hand the following accessories: 1 large platter, 2 dinner plates, 1 cereal bowl, 1 piece paper toweling.
• The list of 8 spices at the end of the recipe make up the Emeril's Essence. These should be mixed together thoroughly before being added to the flour. For a larger portion of Essence that can be stored, multiply all amounts by 4 and just add 1 tablespoon of Essence to the flour.
• Chop up carrots, celery and onion. Set aside. (This can be done the night before and all vegetables placed together in a baggie in the refrigerator.).
• In cereal bowl, combine flour and Emeril's Essence. (Emeril's Essence can be made up anytime in advance and stored.).
• Cube meat into approximately 1 1/2" chunks on large platter, trimming away excess fat as necessary. (Do not cube in advance or meat will be too bloody and not dry enough.).
• Dredge each piece of meat thoroughly in flour mixture and return to platter.
• Place pressure cooker on cooktop and apply medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil.
• When olive oil is hot, add approximately 1/2 of the meat cubes in order to saute. (Don't crowd meat. It will take 2-2 1/2 batches to cook meat.) Cook meat until well browned on outside, but still pink on inside--about 3-4 minutes per batch.
• When first batch of meat is cooked, transfer to dinner plate, wipe edges of pressure cooker with paper towel, add some more olive oil and place second batch of meat in pressure cooker to saute. Repeat procedure until all meat cubes are browned.
• Reduce heat under pressure cooker to medium-low. Add balsamic vinegar and 1/4 cup stock. Deglaze pan.
• Add carrots, celery, onion and garlic to pressure cooker. Add salt and pepper. Mix well and cook over medium-low heat for 3 minutes.
• Remove all but 1/2 cup vegetables from pressure cooker and set aside on second dinner plate. Wipe down edges of pressure cooker.
• Add to pressure cooker: reserved meat, bay leaves, red wine, and remaining beef stock. Mix well.
• Place lid on pressure cooker. Heat on high until pressure cooker is up to full pressure. Reduce heat to simmer and cook at high pressure for 20 minutes.
• While meat is cooking, take a red potato, slice in half the long way, then slice each half the long way one more time. Make three cross-cuts on each potato "submarine" and keep pieces together in submarine shape on cutting board. Repeat process for second potato. (This method prevents the potato flesh from turning brown while you're waiting to add the potatoes to the stew.).
• When meat has been cooked 20 minutes, remove pressure cooker from cooktop and release pressure using the cold water method. Open lid and add remaining vegetables which have been set aside. Also add potato chunks. Mix well.
• Replace lid on pressure cooker. Place pressure cooker on cooktop over high heat. Bring pressure up to high, reduce heat to simmer, and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. At the end of 10 minutes, release pressure using the cold water method again.
• Remove lid from pressure cooker and enjoy stew.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the beef and 2 tablespoons flour. Season generously with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Set aside.
• Using the sauté setting, heat the oil in the pot. Add the garlic, dried shiitakes (if using), tomato paste, brown sugar, cocoa, onion powder, caraway seeds and espresso powder. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is fragrant and evenly combined, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the remaining 1/3 cup flour and cook, stirring and scraping constantly, until the mixture forms a thick, dry paste, about 1 minute.
• Add the beer and broth and bring to a boil, whisking constantly to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let boil until noticeably thickened, about 1 minute. Add the beef and thyme and stir to combine. Cover and set steam valve to sealed position. Cook on high pressure for 22 minutes.
• Let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually. (If you find that too much liquid is spurting out with the steam, close the knob to seal again, wait a minute, and then turn the knob to release the rest of the pressure.) Open and stir in the potatoes and root vegetables. Set steam valve to sealed position and cook on high pressure for 10 minutes. Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then release the remaining pressure manually.
• Open the lid. If the beef and vegetables are not tender, pressure cook on high for 3 more minutes and manually release the pressure. Add the vinegar, Worcestershire sauce and lemon juice. Taste and season with more salt, pepper and lemon juice if necessary. (If the stew tastes flat, add more lemon juice first, then more salt and pepper; acid is key to making it taste lively. It may need a surprising amount of salt, especially if you have used unsalted or low-salt stock.)
• Discard the thyme sprigs and skim the fat from the top using a ladle or by passing a clean paper towel just over the surface of the stew. (If you would like the stew to be thicker, transfer the beef and vegetables with a slotted spoon to a bowl or plate. Using the sauté setting, let boil until it is the desired consistency. Add the beef and vegetables back into the pot.)
