We tried this recipe: http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2016/10/pressure-cooker-beef-stew-recipe.html It was supposed to take less than an hour, but with prep and multiple steps involved, it took over 2 hours and was quite complicated. Our modifications: first, given the diameter of a standard pressure cooker, we recommend cutting the chuck roast steaks into 6 pieces rather than 3 to… Continue reading Pressure cooker classic American beef stew

Pressure-cooker Middle Eastern style chicken and rice
We garnished with dried cherries instead of raisins. We also browned the chicken, single layer on a foil-lined cookie sheet, under the broiler on “high” for about 5 mins.

Korean soy-braised beef with mushrooms and hot peppers (jang jorim)

Cover with 1 ½ cups soy sauce and ½ cup… Continue reading Korean soy-braised beef with mushrooms and hot peppers (jang jorim)
Caribbean chicken pepper pot
This is a much-beloved Food Network recipe for my family. When we first made it in 2011, it was called Caribbean chicken pepper pot.

The current recipe is here: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/caribbean-chicken-pepper-pot-recipe.html… Continue reading Caribbean chicken pepper pot
