Instant Pot Beef Curry Pressure Cooker Curry Recipes

PRESSURE COOKER CURRY BEEF STEW (AN INSTANT POT RECIPE)

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients listed under "Bottom layer" above into the Instant Pot. Stir to mix well.
• Spread the onion into a single layer on top of the Bottom layer. Add the beef chunks on top of the onion without overlapping. Smear tomato paste onto the beef as evenly as possible.
• Sprinkle all the "top layer" ingredients onto the beef as evenly as possible.
• Seal the Instant Pot. Set on Manual at high pressure for 30 minutes. Use natural release when done. (*Footnote 1)
• Taste the beef and adjust seasoning by adding more salt if needed. Remove the bay leaves and the chili peppers and discard them. Stir everything to mix well. You can store the beef curry in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days, or serve directly. (*Footnote 3)
• (Optional) To add veggies to your curry, simply microwave some frozen green peas or green beans in microwave and add them into the curry. You can also turn on the saute function of your Instant Pot, add the veggies, and cook until they are done.
• Serve hot over steamed rice.

INSTANT POT BEEF CURRY

Steps:

• Place the butter, flour, curry powder, onion powder, garlic powder, garam masala, turmeric, cayenne, white pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl and knead until combined. Set the curry roux aside.
• Pat the beef dry and season all over with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Add the oil to the Instant Pot® and set to high saute (see Cook's Note). When the oil is hot, add the beef in two or three batches to avoid overcrowding and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir once and cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer the beef to a large plate using a slotted spoon and repeat with the remaining beef, adding more oil if needed.
• Add the onion and apple to the pot and cook, stirring often and scraping up the browned bits on the bottom with a wooden spoon, until soft and translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomato paste and honey and stir to coat. Add the broth and stir to combine. Add the browned beef and any juices accumulated on the plate, Worcestershire sauce, potatoes, carrots and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Scatter dime-size pieces of the curry roux evenly over the top.
• Follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and set to pressure cook on high saute for 20 minutes. After the pressure cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for quick release and wait until the quick release cycle is complete. Unlock and remove the lid, being careful of any remaining steam.
• Set the Instant Pot® to high saute and stir until the roux is melted and the curry looks smooth and creamy with no streaks of roux, about 1 minute. If the curry is too thick for your liking, stir in a 1/2 cup to 1 cup water. Season with salt and pepper, if needed. Serve with rice and fukujinzuke.

Steps:

• In a blender jar, combine the tomatoes, onion, garlic, and cilantro. (If you put the tomatoes at the bottom, they will liquefy first, and you won't have to add water.)
• Process until all the vegetables have turned to a smooth puree.
• Add the cumin, coriander, garam masala, cayenne, and salt. Process for several more seconds.
• In the inner cooking pot, add the beef and pour the vegetable puree on top.
• Lock the lid into place. Select high pressure and 20 minute cook time. Let the pressure release naturally for at least 10 minutes.
• Remove the lid and stir the curry. Taste and adjust, adding more salt if you like. Serve with naan.

INSTANT POT BEEF CURRY (PRESSURE COOKER CURRY)

Steps:

• Add oil in a blender then add in onion, tomatoes, garlic, ginger, garam masala, cumin, coriander, cayenne pepper, beef bouillon cube, salt, and curry powder. Blend till smooth. You need the paste to be thick so don't blend with water.
• Add the blended curry paste in the pot of the instant pot pressure cooker then add in the beef cubes. Stir the beef with the curry paste so it's well coated.
• Cover the instant pot with its lid, turn the knob into 'sealing' position then set to manual pressure cooker on high for 20 minutes.
• After the 20 minutes pressure cooking cycle, do a 5 minutes pressure release. When the IP is depressurized and safe to open, open the lid.
• Stir the beef curry. Set the instant pot to saute for a minute or till the curry thickens to how you desire then switch off the instant pot
• Garnish the curry with chopped coriander (optional), serve and enjoy.

PRESSURE COOKER BEEF CURRY

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a pressure cooker. Season the beef and fry in batches for 5-8 mins, turning occasionally until evenly browned. Set aside on a plate.
• Heat the remaining oil and butter in the pan and fry the onion gently for 10 mins or until golden brown and caramelised. Add the garlic, ginger, chilli, turmeric, coriander and cardamom and fry for 2 mins. Stir in the beef and cook for 1 min to coat the beef in the spices.
• Tip in the tomatoes, stock and sugar and bring to a simmer. Lock the lid onto the cooker and bring up to high pressure. Cook for 15 mins, then turn off the heat and let the pressure drop naturally. Give everything a good stir and add more water if the sauce is already thick.
• Lock the lid back in place and give it another 10 mins, then let the pressure drop naturally. Check the meat is tender - depending on the cut it might need 5 mins more.
• Take it off the heat, stir through the garam masala and cream, if you like. Season to taste. Scatter over the coriander and serve with naan bread or rice.
