Instructions
- Season the beef with salt and pepper.
- Add olive oil and butter to the Instant Pot. Using the display panel select the SAUTE function.
- When butter melts, brown the meat on one side, 3-4 minutes. Meat will not be cooked through. Do not crowd the pot--you will have to work in batches. Transfer browned meat to a shallow dish and cover loosely with foil.
- Add onion to the pot and saute until soft, 3-4 minutes.
- Add garlic, paprika, caraway and tomato paste. Cook and stir 1-2 minutes more.
- Add broth to the pot and deglaze by using a wooden spoon to scrape the brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Put the meat and any juices back into the pot, stir in diced tomatoes.
- Turn the pot off by selecting CANCEL, then secure the lid, making sure the vent is closed.
- Using the display panel select the MANUAL function*. Use the +/- keys and program the Instant Pot for 15 minutes.
- When the time is up, let the pressure naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release the remaining pressure.
- In a small bowl, mix together cornstarch and
1/2 cup pot juices. Stir into the pot until thickened, returning to SAUTE mode as needed. Adjust seasonings. - Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream, alongside noodles, zucchini zoodles, mashed potatoes or with crusty bread.
