INSTRUCTIONS
1. Trim and discard excess fat and any gristle from beef. Cut beef into 1
1/4-inch chunks. Place 3 T flour in shallow dish or pie plate; add half of
beef and toss to coat with flour.
2. In 6-quart pressure cooker (see Note), heat 1 T oil over medium-high
heat. Add floured beef and cook, using slotted spoon, until browned on all
sides. Remove beef chunks to bowl after they brown. Add remaining oil to
pan; flour and brown the rest of the beef. Reserve any leftover flour.
3. Reduce heat to medium and add onion to cooker; sautd 1 minute. Add wine
and stir to loosen browned-on bits. Add broth, tomato paste, bay leaves,
and browned beef with accumulated juices. Cover pressure cooker and heat
over high heat to bring up to full pressure (15 lb). Re- duce heat to
stabilize pressure and cook 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, prepare vegetables: Peel carrots and cut into 1-inch lengths.
Scrub unpeeted potatoes well and cut into halves or quarters. Peel celeriac
and cut lengthwise into quarters, then slice. If using celery, cut into
1-inch lengths.
5. After stew has cooked 15 minutes, release pressure immediately under
cold running water. Add prepared vegetables to pressure cooker; cover and
return to full pressure over high heat. Meanwhile, trim ends off green
beans and cut beans diagonally into 1 1/2-inch lengths. When pressure
cooker reaches full pressure, release pressure immediately as before.
Remove and discard bay leaves from stew.
6. Add beans to stew and cook uncovered over medium heat just until they
soften-about 1 minute. In small cup, combine remaining 1 T flour with any
leftover flour, the water, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir flour mixture
into stew and continue to cook until sauce boils and thickens. Transfer
stew to serv- ing dish and sprinkle with parsley.
Note: This recipe was tested in a 6-quart stainless-steel Presto Pressure
Cooker. If using another brand, follow manufacturer's directions for
heating and releasing pressure.
