The Cooking Process
Creating this beef shank mushrooms stew in the Instant Pot is a breeze. Here's how:
- Brown the Beef: Set your Instant Pot to the sauté mode. Add the olive oil and once hot, place the beef shank in the pot. Brown both sides to a nice golden color, then set aside.
- Sauté the Aromatics: In the remaining oil, add the chopped onion. Sauté until golden and caramelized, adding a bit of water if needed to deglaze the pot. Introduce the garlic and mushrooms, cooking until they are golden.
- Add the Flavors: Stir in the paprika, curry powder, and salt, ensuring the mushrooms and onions are well coated. Pour in the beef broth and tomato passata, mixing well.
- Cook Under Pressure: Return the beef shank to the pot, securing it amidst the liquid and veggies. Close the lid, set the Instant Pot to high pressure, and cook for 45 minutes.
- Shred and Thicken: Once cooked, remove the beef shank, shred it, and return the meat to the pot. Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode and cook uncovered until the stew thickens to your liking.
- Serve and Enjoy: Serve it with my favorite cauliflower mash. It will be perfect!
