Ingredients

Steps

1. Pressure Cooking the Beef
   1. Peel our ginger, and apple.
   2. Then mince the ginger and garlic cloves. Roughly chop up the apple.
   3. Slice onion up into large pieces.
   4. Season stew meat all over with salt and pepper.
   5. Turn the pressure cooker on saute mode and add the vegetable oil to it. Once hot add the stew meat. Brown the pieces on all sides about 7-8 minutes.
   6. Now add the onions, ginger, garlic and apple. Saute for a few minutes or until the onions turn translucent. Then turn off the pressure cooker.
   7. Add the beef bouillon cubes, water, worchershire sauce, soy sauce, and honey to the pot and mix well.
   8. Now put on the lid and set the pressure cooker to high pressure for 30 minutes.
2. Cooking the Veggies
   1. While the beef is cooking, let’s prep the rest of our ingredients. Peel carrots and the potatoes. Then cut them up into large bite sized pieces.
   2. After the 30 minutes is up, release the pressure from the cooker and take off the lid.
   3. Add the potatoes and carrots to the pot and stir well. Put the lid back on, and set the pressure cooker on high pressure for 5 minutes.
3. Putting it All Together
   1. After 5 minutes, release the pressure from the cooker one last time. Take off the lid.
   2. Take our boxed curry sauce and break it up into several pieces. Add it to the pressure cooker and mix it really well to dissolve the pieces.
   3. Now add the frozen peas and give it another good stir. Serve it up with rice and enjoy!
