Step 1
Heat oil in the bottom of a pressure cooker, like an Instant Pot®, over medium-high heat. Brown the beef cubes on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Step 2
In the same pot, add the onion and garlic. Sauté for about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Return the beef to the pot. Add the potatoes, carrots, and beef broth. Season with salt and peppe
Step 4
Close the lid and set the valve to sealing. Select “Pressure Cook” (or “Manual”) and set the timer for 35 minutes. Once the cooking time is up, let the pressure release naturally for about 10 minutes, then carefully switch the valve to venting to release any remaining pressure.

Prepare rice according to package directions.
