Best Instant Pot Cumin Lamb Stew With Curry And Chilis Recipes

INSTANT POT LAMB CURRY WITH COCONUT & TOMATOES

Steps:

• Prepare all the ingredients for part 1 and turn the Instant Pot. Press the Saute function key and allow the pot to heat up slightly.
• Add the ghee or butter and onions and cook for 2 minutes, to soften. Add garlic, ginger and cilantro and cook together for another minute, stirring well.
• Finally, add all the spices and salt and stir through the onion mixture to release the aromas. Press Cancel to stop the Sauteing process. The mixture will brown and get pretty sticky and some of it may get stuck to the bottom. Add a little splash of water to the pot and stir through scraping off any stuck mixture from the bottom. This will prevent any burning during pressure cooking.
• Add the lamb and tomatoes and stir through well. Pop the lid and lock, making sure the top valve is pointing to Sealing. Press Manual/Pressure Cook, set to HIGH pressure for 25 minutes. It will take 10 minutes for the Instant Pot to build up the pressure and the timer will commence. Once done, release pressure naturally (should take 15 minutes). In the meantime, prepare ingredients for Part 2.
• Open the lid and stir the curry. Press the Saute function again. Add the carrots and peppers and cook for 5-7 minutes on Saute, stirring frequently. The curry will bubble away, which will thicken the broth.
• To finish the curry, add the thickened coconut milk and stir through.

INSTANT POT MIDDLE EASTERN LAMB STEW

Steps:

• Turn the Instant Pot on and set it to the Sauté function. Heat the butter or oil and saute the onions for 3-4 minutes until fragrant. Add the lamb, garlic, salt and all the spices and saute for 5 more minutes until fragrant. Add the vinegar, tomato paste, honey, stock, chickpeas and raisins and stir until combined.
• Cover and set the Instant Pot (or pressure cooker) to pressure cook setting for 50 minutes on normal/high. Naturally release.
• Let the pressure release and give a stir. The lamb will be tender and break apart easily. If you prefer it less juicy, return to saute function and cook off some of the liquid. ( Note that it will thicken a bit as it sits)
• Serve over quinoa, rice or cous cous with some fresh cilantro or parsley.
• The leftovers taste even better the next day as the flavors have more time to meld.
