I've wanted to make beef Burgundy ever since I got one of Julia Child's cookbooks, but I wanted to find a way to fix it in a pressure cooker. My version of the popular beef stew is still rich, hearty and delicious, but without the need to watch on the stovetop or in the oven.-Crystal Jo Bruns, Iliff, Colorado

Time 37m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 lbs lean boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 1 inch pieces
4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
2 2/3 cups fresh mushrooms, halved (8 ounces)
3/4 cup onion, cut into wedges
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 bay leaf
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2/3 cup beef broth or 2/3 cup beef stock
2/3 cup dry red wine
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup water
6 cups hot cooked egg noodles (12 oz uncooked)

Steps:

  • In a 4 or 6 quart pressure cooker, combine beef, carrots, mushrooms, onion, garlic, bay leaf, salt, thyme, black pepper, beef broth or beef stock, wine and tomato paste.
  • Place seal in the pressure cooker lid and lock the lid in place. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe and bring to pressure over high heat. Reduce heat just enough to maintain pressure so the pressure regulator rocks gently. Cook for 12 minutes.
  • Remove cooker from heat and allow pressure to come down naturally. Once pressure is down, remove pressure regulator from lid. (Be careful - it will be hot!) Unlock lid and carefully remove it.
  • Remove the bay leaf and discard. In a small bowl stir together flour and 1/4 cup water till well combined. Add this mixture to cooker. Replace cooker over medium to medium high heat (but do not replace lid), and cook until stew is thickened and bubbly, stirring frequently. Once stew begins to thicken, continue cooking for 1 minute more.
  • Remove cooker from heat.
  • Serve stew over egg noodles.

Tips:

  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of beef broth and red wine in the pressure cooker.
  • Sear the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even browning.
  • Use a variety of vegetables for a more flavorful stew, such as carrots, celery, onions, and mushrooms.
  • Add a bouquet garni, a bundle of herbs tied together with kitchen twine, to the pressure cooker for extra flavor.
  • Don't forget the bacon! It adds a delicious smoky flavor to the stew.
  • Serve the boeuf bourguignon over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.
