Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, peeled and sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
1 red bell pepper, cored, stemmed, and sliced into 1/2 inch strips
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 inch piece of ginger, peeled and crushed
Cream from the top of a (13.5 ounce) can coconut milk
1/2 cup red curry paste (a whole 4-ounce can)
8-ounce can bamboo shoots, drained
2 pounds flat iron steak (or chuck blade steak, or boneless chuck roast), cut into 2-inch by 1/2-inch strips
1 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt or 2 teaspoons fine sea salt
1/2 cup chicken stock or water
1 tablespoon fish sauce (plus more to taste)
1 tablespoon soy sauce (plus more to taste)
Juice of 1 lime
Minced cilantro
Minced basil (preferably Thai basil)
Lime wedges
Jasmine rice

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat in the pressure cooker pot until shimmering. (Use Sauté mode in an electric pressure cooker.) Stir in the onion, red bell pepper, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until the onion starts to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Scoop the cream from the top of the can of coconut milk and add it to the pot, then stir in the curry paste. Cook, stirring often, until the curry paste darkens, about 5 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the beef with the kosher salt. Add the beef to the pot, and stir to coat with curry paste. Stir in the rest of the can of coconut milk, bamboo shoots, chicken stock, fish sauce, and soy sauce. Lock the lid and pressure cook on high pressure for 12 minutes in an electric PC or 10 minutes in a stovetop PC. Let the pressure come down naturally, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove the lid from the pressure cooker. Stir in the lime juice, then taste the curry for seasoning, adding more soy sauce or fish sauce as needed. Ladle the curry into bowls, sprinkle with minced cilantro and basil, and serve with Jasmine rice.

THAI COCONUT BEEF

My husband and I love Thai food, but going out on weeknights can be challenging with busy schedules. I wanted to create a Thai-inspired dinner that could double as an easy lunch the following day. The beef is fantastic in this dish, but chicken or pork would be equally delicious! -Ashley Lecker, Green Bay, Wisconsin

BEEF THAI RED CURRY FUSION RECIPE - 8-QT. PRESSURE COOKER



Beef Thai Red Curry Fusion Recipe - 8-Qt. Pressure Cooker image

Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from pressurecookerdiaries.com. I estimate that this will fit into a 6-quart Pressure Cooker without the rice or else an 8-quart cooker with the rice. This relies on a jar of McCormick's Thai Kitchen Red Curry Paste, tailored for U.S. consumption, so it is likely milder than more authentic red curry pastes. (The Thai Kitchen fish sauce is known to be milder than Tiparos. If using Tiparos, use 1 tsp. instead of 1 Tbsp.) Note that potatoes are rarely used in Thai cuisine, so this may be more Malay or Indian than Thai.

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 lbs beef chuck roast
1 large red bell pepper, roughly cut
2 medium onions, quartered
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk, DO NOT SHAKE
1 (4 ounce) jar thai kitchen red curry paste, see Recipe Description
1 cup water
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon fish sauce (Thai Kitchen brand, see Recipe Description)
6 tablespoons fresh Thai basil or 2 tablespoons dried basil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 -6 medium red potatoes (2-3 lbs.)
1 cup brown rice (optional)
2 cups water (optional)

Steps:

  • Prep the meat and veggies.
  • Cut the meat into uniform 1-2-inch sections, trimming off any excess fat. (Bonus points for removing tendons and silver skin!). Reserve until Step 9.
  • Roughly cut the bell pepper. Quarter the onions.
  • In pressure cooker pan, heat olive oil on medium-high heat until shimmering. Brown the onions and peppers, until one side is slightly charred.
  • Remove the vegetables and reserve until Step 13.
  • Make the curry sauce: Add the cream from the top of the coconut milk, and deglaze the pan. Add the 4 oz. of Thai curry paste and mix well.
  • Cook 4-6 minutes until bubbling and frying, stirring often.
  • Add the rest of the coconut milk, the water, soy sauce, brown sugar, fish sauce, and basil. Mix well.
  • Add the beef, and top with whole red potatoes.
  • Optional: Place rice with 2 cups water in a metal bowl. Cover with a lid or tinfoil, and carefully place on top of the curry. (Make some handles by cutting aluminum foil in long strips and at least triple-layering it. Then you will be able to remove the hot bowl easily once cooking has completed.).
  • Bring to pressure on high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to the lowest setting that maintains pressure and cook for 12 minutes (begin timing once pressure is reached).
  • Remove from heat. Do a quick pressure release per your pressure cooker manual's recommendation.
  • Remove lid and add back the bell pepper and onions. Recover and bring pressure back up for 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat. Allow cooker to depressurize naturally.
  • Remove the lid, directing steam away from you. Carefully remove the rice bowl.
  • With all the sauce, you'll want to serve in a soup bowl. Scoop some rice into the bowl, then top with curry, meat, and veggies.
