How to Make Beef Bourguignon Ala Pressure Cooker

  1. In a 4-6 quart pressure cooker, combine 1.5 lbs beef stew meat, 2 large carrots (chopped), 8 oz cremini mushrooms (sliced), 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 bay leaf, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp dried thyme, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 2 cups beef broth, 1 cup dry red wine, and 2 tbsp tomato paste.
  2. Secure the pressure cooker lid and ensure it's properly locked.
  3. Set the pressure regulator to the appropriate setting and bring to high pressure over high heat.
  4. Once high pressure is reached, reduce heat to maintain a gentle rocking pressure release.
  5. Cook on high pressure for 12 minutes.
  6. Turn off the heat and allow the pressure to release naturally. This typically takes about 15-20 minutes.
  7. Carefully remove the pressure regulator once the pressure has completely released.
  8. Unlock and carefully remove the lid.
  9. Remove and discard the bay leaf.
  10. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp all-purpose flour and 1/4 cup cold water until smooth.
  11. Stir the flour slurry into the pressure cooker.
  12. Return the pressure cooker to medium-high heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the stew has thickened and is bubbly (about 2-3 minutes).
  13. Remove from heat.
  14. Serve hot over egg noodles or mashed potatoes.
