Instant Pot

Ingredients

1 ¼ lbs stew beef
2 tablespoon olive oil
3 cups beef stock (gluten free if necessary)
2 tablespoon tomato paste
3 pieces celery, chopped
4 carrots, chopped
½ lb small dutch yellow potatoes, cut in half (about 10)
1 cup pearl onions, peeled (about 6)
2 cloves garlic, chopped
4 fresh thyme sprigs (or ½ tsp)
1 fresh rosemary sprig (or ¼ tsp)
2 bay leaves
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
dash of red chili flakes (optional)
2 tablespoon gluten free flour (Bob's Red Mill)

Instructions

Set Instant Pot to saute and add oil. Generously salt and pepper beef. Add to pot and brown in batches 4-5 minutes per side. Don't overcrowd the pan or the beef will not brown.
Add beef stock and tomato paste and give it a quick stir. Scrape any bits off bottom of pot.
Add all remaining ingredients except flour.
In a small bowl mix flour with 2 tablespoon water or beef stock. Whisk well and add to pot. Give everything a stir.
Set pot to stew / meat setting for 35 minutes. Close lid and steaming vent.
When it is done allow pressure to naturally release for at least ten minutes. This will ensure that the meat is not tough and I urge you not to skip this step.
Add salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Make sure your beef stock is gluten free.
