BASIC BEEF STEW
Flour and season meat. Heat oil in cooker over medium heat. Add the meat
and cook uncovered until well browned. (The longer you brown the meat,
the darker your sauce will turn be).
Add hot broth and the onion. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Close
cover and bring to high pressure. Lower heat and cook 15 minutes. Remove
from heat, let pressure reduce using the Natural Release method. Remove
cover.
Add the remaining vegetables and salt and pepper. Close cover and return
to high pressure.
Lower heat and cook 5 more minutes. Again, remove from heat and reduce
pressure using the Natural Release method. Remove cover. Check seasonings
and serve.

using the Natural Release method. Remove cover.
