Ingredients
2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil1 1⁄2 pound Beef Stew Meat (cubed)
1 whole Onion (diced)
3 whole Celery Stalks (sliced)
2 cloves Garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon Tomato Paste
12 ounces Guinness
1 cup Beef Broth
1 pound Yukon Gold Potatoes (peeled, cut into chunks)
3 whole Carrots (cut into chunks)
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
2 tablespoons Water
dash Salt
dash Ground Black Pepper
dash Garlic Powder
1⁄2 cup Parsley (chopped)
Directions
- Set Instant Pot to sauté on high. Season meat with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat oil, then brown meat in 2-3 batches. Once browned, remove from pot and set aside on a plate.
- Add onions, celery and garlic to pot and cook until softened, 4-5 minutes. Add tomato paste and cook for 1 more minute. Pour Guinness over vegetables, scrapping any browned bits off the bottom of the pot.
- Simmer until beer has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Then switch off instant pot and stir in beef broth, potatoes, carrots and browned meat. Close lid and set valve to "sealing". Press "stew" button, which is 35 minutes.
- Once pot is indicating it's done with cooking, wait for it to naturally pressure release for 20 minutes. Then manually release any remaining pressure and open the lid.
- Mix cornstarch with water. Set instant pot to sauté and stir in cornstarch slurry. Simmer until thickened. Taste for seasoning and add parsley. Stir one last time and serve.
