I have just purchased a Pressure Cooka and I was wondering if anyone had any recipes for me to try. I have not used it yet but it looks like you can cook a meal with meat and vegs from just 10 minutes to 30 minutes. It is going to save so much time for me in my cooking. I have a slow cooka but it has to be on all day to get that tender taste. The pressure cooka can do the same in just 30 mintues and have that great tender taste of the meat. Thanks for your help in any recipes you might have for me.

Hi Kelly, pressure cookers are great time savers and I have a recipe for you.

Braised steak and mushroom. If you don't like mushrooms just omit them.
750g of oyster blade steak cut into edible size chunks.
1 onion chopped
1 stick of celery chopped
1 lge carrot chopped
200g of mushrooms cut in quarters
salt & pepper to taste
any herbs you like Parsley or chives are good

Brown meat in a pan with small amount of oil, then place the veg in pressure cooker with 1 table spoon of oil and cook until soft .
place meat on top of veg with enough water or chicken stock to cover contents to fill line in the cooker, I prefer the stock, place cooker on high heat till it steams then lower to a steady but gentle steam for approx 30 to 40 minutes.you can thicken with water and cornflour if desired at the end of cooking. I hope you like this it's very easy to do and enjoyable
Regards robin
