Veg Beef Soup Recipes Instant Pot
Servings: 6-8
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients:
* 1 pound beef strips (sirloin or ribeye), sliced into thin strips
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1 onion, chopped
* 3 cloves garlic, minced
* 2 medium-sized carrots, peeled and chopped
* 2 medium-sized potatoes, peeled and chopped
* 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
* 2 cups vegetable broth
* 1 teaspoon dried thyme
* 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
* Salt and pepper, to taste
* 1/4 cup red wine (optional)
Instructions:
1. Press the "Saute" button on the Instant Pot and heat the olive oil until shimmering.
2. Add the sliced beef and cook until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the pot and set aside.
3. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot and cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the chopped carrots and potatoes to the pot and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
5. Add the diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir to combine.
6. Add the browned beef back to the pot and stir to combine.
7. Close the lid of the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is set to "Sealing".
8. Press the "Manual" or "Pressure Cook" button and set the cooking time to 30 minutes at high pressure.
9. When the cooking time is up, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
10. Open the lid and add the red wine (if using). Stir to combine and let the soup simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the flavors have melded together.
Variations:
* For a spicy twist, add 1-2 teaspoons of chili flakes or diced jalapenos to the pot during the sautéing process.
* For a Mediterranean-inspired flavor, add 1/4 cup of chopped Kalamata olives, 1/4 cup of artichoke hearts, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice to the pot during the simmering process.
* For a vegetarian version, substitute the beef with 1 cup of cooked lentils or 1 cup of sliced mushrooms.
