Simple Beef Stew
Simple beef stew is great to serve with rice or noodles. Also, during winter time, I usually use slow cooker to cook beef stew. Not only it is convenient, but also helps warm up my cold house. However, using slow cooker normally takes 5-6 hours to make beef stew. After we got our first instant pot pressure cooker, and I found out pressure cooker actual cook really tasty meat because it keeps the juice inside the meat. Besides, simple beef stew meat is very moist and tender.
The following recipe has slow cooker and instant pot method. In contrast, instant pot cook beef stew faster than regular slow cooker, it just takes around couple hours instead 6 hours. Even though you can put a frozen beef into an instant pot, it still cooks and takes around the same time as thaw meat. After all, I like to use pressure cooker to cook beef stew now because it's faster and taste even better.
