Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs lean roast beef
- 4 tbsp all-purpose flour
- 1 can of mushroom soup
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves chopped
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 bay leaves
- 3 tbsp frying oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Mix flour with salt and pepper. Pat the beef dry and coat on all sides in all-purpose flour. Then shake off excess flour.
- Heat 2 tbsp frying oil and fry the beef for 3-4 minutes on each side on medium heat. A crust should form on the surface of the beef.
- In another pan, in the remaining oil, fry the onion and garlic, stirring, for 5 minutes.
- Combine mushroom soup, beef broth, and sautéed onion and garlic in a pressure cooker. Add bay leaf.
- Put the beef in the pot. Close the pressure cooker with a lid and cook under pressure for 60 minutes.
- When the timer beeps, gently release the pressure and remove the beef. Disassemble with two forks into fibers.
- Stir the starch in two tablespoons of water and pour into the saucepan. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Mix the beef with the sauce and serve, for example, with breakfast buns.
