Beef & Mushroom Braised Stew image

Every spring, my family heads out to our timber acreage to collect morel mushrooms, and then we cook up this stew. We use morels, of course, but baby portobellos or button mushrooms or will work, too. -Amy Wertheim, Atlanta, Illinois

INSTANT POT® BEEF AND MUSHROOM STEW



Instant Pot® Beef and Mushroom Stew image

This hearty stew is cooked in the Instant Pot®. It relies on potatoes and aromatics breaking down during the cook to form a rich gravy for tender meat and delightful mushrooms. If you want to add a thickener, use the optional directions for cornstarch. We liked it over wide egg noodles, but it would also work on top of rice or mashed potatoes. My guys liked it, so I guess it is a man-pleaser!

Provided by Bibi

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds chuck roast
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon avocado oil, or more as needed
2 medium onions, chopped
½ cup minced celery
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon herbes de Provence
2 large bay leaves
½ cup red wine
1 ½ cups beef stock
3 tablespoons tomato paste
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
2 cups diced russet potatoes
3 (8 ounce) packages mushrooms, quartered
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Cut roast into pieces that will fit the inner pot and pat dry with paper towels. Season one side with salt and pepper.
  • Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add enough oil to cover the entire bottom surface of the pot and wait until indicator reads "Hot". Carefully add a piece of beef to the pot, seasoned side down, and saute until nicely browned, about 6 minutes. Season the other side with salt and pepper and turn, using tongs. Brown for an additional 6 minutes and remove to a plate to keep warm. Repeat with remaining beef.
  • Add onions and saute in the drippings until softened, about 3 minutes. Add celery, garlic, herbes de Provence, and bay leaves, and saute until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in red wine and use a wooden spoon to stir all the browned bits off of the bottom of the pot, and cook for about 2 minutes. Turn off Saute function.
  • Cut browned beef into cubes about 1 1/2 inches thick, removing fat and any gristle. Return to the pot.
  • Stir beef stock, tomato paste, soy sauce, and fish sauce together in a small bowl. Add to the pot and stir in potatoes. Gently push meat pieces until they are at or below the liquid level.
  • Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 22 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Stir in mushrooms. Make sure most of the mushrooms are partially submerged in the liquid. Adjust seasonings, if desired. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 15 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Release remaining pressure carefully, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
  • Stir stew well. Mix corn starch with water in a small bowl. Stir until there are no lumps, then stir into the pot. Select Saute function and cook until gravy is bubbly, stirring frequently, to assure that there is no sticking, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove bay leaves and serve.

OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW WITH MUSHROOMS



Old-Fashioned Beef Stew with Mushrooms image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons grapeseed or olive oil, plus more as needed
3 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 carrots (1 roughly chopped, 3 cut into 1/2-inch rounds)
4 stalks celery (1 roughly chopped, 3 cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup hearty red wine, such as shiraz
2 quarts beef stock or reduced-sodium beef broth
2 sprigs thyme
1 1/4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 pound mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, chanterelle, oyster and/or stemmed shiitake), sliced or quartered if large
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Chopped fresh parsley, for topping

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the beef with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Add to the pot in batches and cook, turning and adding more oil as needed, until browned all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons oil to the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Add the roughly chopped carrot, celery and onion and cook, occasionally stirring with a wooden spoon and scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pot, until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes. Move the vegetables to one side and add the tomato paste to the empty side. Cook until it darkens around the edge, about 2 minutes; stir into the vegetables. Add the wine and bring to a boil.
  • Return the beef and any juices to the pot; add the stock. Bring to a boil, skimming any foam off the top. Add the thyme. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until the beef is tender, about 2 hours.
  • Strain the beef and vegetables in a colander set over a large bowl, reserving the cooking liquid. Tent the beef mixture with foil. Let the cooking liquid stand for 5 minutes and then skim off the fat on the surface. Return the liquid to the pot. Add the remaining carrots and celery and the potatoes and bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the vegetables are just tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and brown, 10 minutes. (Pour off any extra liquid, if necessary.) Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the flour to make a roux, then let it bubble (do not brown), 2 minutes. Whisk in 2 cups of the reserved cooking liquid. Stir this sauce into the pot with the vegetables; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring often, until thickened, 5 minutes.
  • Return the beef to the pot, discarding the roughly chopped carrot, celery, onion and thyme. Add the mushrooms and simmer until heated through, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with parsley.

BEEF AND MUSHROOM STEW



Beef and Mushroom Stew image

A simple beef stew recipe that comes together quickly then braises slowly to a flavorful finish.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Beef Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds beef-stew meat, cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch cubes
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
6 tablespoons olive oil, plus more if necessary
1 cup dry red wine
2 1/2 cups homemade or low-sodium canned beef stock
8 ounces pearl onions, peeled
1 cup canned whole plum tomatoes, crushed
5 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
12 ounces white button mushrooms, quartered if large

Steps:

  • Pat the cubed meat dry with paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Toss the meat in flour.
  • Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons oil. Add half the meat in a single layer without crowding, and brown on all sides, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove meat from pot, and transfer to a bowl. Add 1/3 cup of wine, and stir with a wooden spoon, scraping any browned bits on the bottom of the pan (if wine evaporates too quickly to scrape up browned bits, add some stock). Transfer cooking liquid to bowl with meat. Wipe pot clean, and repeat process with remaining meat.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in Dutch oven, and add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden all over, about 3 minutes.
  • Deglaze pan with remaining 1/3 cup wine, and return reserved beef and cooking liquid to pot. Add stock and tomatoes; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook, covered, for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Add carrots and mushrooms. Cook, covered, until meat and vegetables are tender, 45 to 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the better the stew will taste. Look for fresh mushrooms, onions, and beef. You can also use a good quality red wine.
  • Brown the beef before cooking. This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Cook the stew low and slow. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to the stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Add some herbs and spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the stew. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, garlic, and paprika.
  • Serve the stew with a side of bread or rice. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Mushroom, onion, and beef stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious stew that your family and friends will love.
