Instant Pot Corned Beef and Vegetables
Cooking a corned beef, or silverside, in an Instant Pot is a great way to create a beautiful meat that just melts in your mouth. For this dish, I used carrots, onions, red potatoes, cabbage and beans, though you can use whatever vegetables you and your family enjoy, like sweet potato and pumpkin.
This great recipe includes cooking the meat with an easy homemade spices and a gravy that uses up the leftover liquid after everything has been cooked.
This is one recipe that we have enjoyed immensely and will definitely adding to our regular menu.
First, the spice is added to the meat which has been placed in the Instant Pot with beef broth (you could use chicken broth if you wish), garlic and onions.Then the potatoes and carrots are added into the pot to cook as well. Once the lid is correctly in position, this is then cooked for 70 minutes.
When finished, the meat with the potatoes and carrots and removed and the cabbage and beans are cooked, which only takes a couple of minutes. This is then removed before making the lovely gravy with the leftover liquid.
