Hearty Beef Stew
Serves: 4 - 5 • Time: 40 min

Ingredients:
- 1kg Beef cut into pieces (stew meat or chuck)
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- ½ Cup flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 Cups beef stock
- ½ tsp Paprika
- ½ tsp Rosemary
- ½ tsp Thyme
- 1 Bay leave
- 1 Large onion
- 1 Garlic clove (minced)
- 6 Carrots (diced)
- 4 large potatoes (diced)
- 1 Cup peas
Method:
- Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the beef and coat well
- On the Midea InstaChef control panel, turn the menu knob to “Fry” and press start
- Add in the olive oil, coated beef and remaining flour. Turn every 2 minutes until the beef is browned
- Add in the stock, paprika, rosemary, thyme, bay leaf, onions and garlic. Stir
- Place the lid onto the Midea InstaChef
- Cancel the “Fry” function and then turn the menu knob again until you reach the “Stew” function (this will default to 15 minutes)
- Press start to begin cooking. Music will sound and the Midea InstaChef will start the countdown once the optimum pressure has been reached inside
- When the timer ends, cooker will beep and will switch to the “Keep Warm” function automatically. Press the cancel button
- Release the pressure by holding the pressure release button on the top of the lid
- Once all the pressure has been released, remove the lid and add in the remaining ingredients (carrots, potatoes, peas)
- Place the lid back onto the Midea InstaChef and repeat steps 6-8 (make sure the exhaust valve is pushed down again to prevent air leakage)
- Release the pressure again and open the lid
- Enjoy!
