Instant Pot Hearty Beef and Cabbage Stew

Ingredients

• 1 ½ tsp olive oil
• ½ lb ground beef (lean, can substitute ground turkey)
• salt and pepper (to taste)
• ¼ onion (chopped)
• 2 oz carrots (sliced)
• ¾ stalk celery
• 0.06 tsp crushed red pepper (to your taste)
• ¼ head cabbage (chopped)
• 4 oz tomato sauce (canned)
• ½ cup water
• ½ beef bouillon cube
• 1 ½ tsp butter
• 1 ¼ red potatoes (peeled and cubed, optional)

Instructions

1. Set the Instant Pot on saute mode. Add the oil and heat it up. Add the ground beef and salt and pepper to taste. Stir until it is all browned. (Drain excess fat off)
2. Add the onion, celery and carrots. Sauté for a couple of minutes. Add the cabbage and the red pepper.
3. Add the water, bouillon cube, tomato sauce, and butter. Cover and cook on Meat/Stew setting for 13 minutes.
4. While that is cooking, cook the potatoes by placing them in a pot and adding enough (salted) water to cover them. Place pan on medium-high heat on the stovetop. Let the water come to a boil and boil for 10 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Drain and set them aside.
5. When the stew is finished, release the pressure and uncover the Instant Pot. If you cooked potatoes, gently stir them in the stew. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to your liking. It is ready to serve! Enjoy!
