Recipe: Lamb Stew (Presto Pressure Cooker Manual, 2006)

LAMB STEW

1 pound lamb stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 cup water
1 large onion, sliced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 large clove garlic, minced
4 small potatoes, quartered
1 cup baby-cut carrots
1 teaspoon salt
1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
FOR THICKENING:
1⁄4 cup cold water
1 tablespoon flour

Place lamb, 1 cup water, onion, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic in cooker. Close cover securely. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe and cook 6 minutes with pressure regulator rocking slowly. Cool cooker at once (see note*).

Add potatoes, carrots, salt, and pepper. Close cover securely. Place pressure regulator on vent pipe and cook 3 minutes with pressure regulator rocking slowly. Cool cooker at once (see note*).

TO THICKEN THE STEW:
Mix1/4 cup cold water and flour thoroughly; stir into stew. Heat until stew thickens, stirring constantly.

CAUTION:
FOR MEAT, DO NOT FILL PRESSURE COOKER OVER 2⁄3 FULL! NO PORTION OF THE MEAT SHOULD EXTEND ABOVE THE 2⁄3 FULL MARK. Operating the cooker without cooking liquid or allowing the cooker to boil dry will damage the cooker.

*NOTE:
If the instructions state, "Cool cooker at once," cool the pressure cooker under a running water faucet or pour cold water over it, or place it in a pan of cold water until pressure is completely reduced. Note: Do not set hot cooker in a molded sink as it could damage the sink. Pressure is completely reduced when the air vent/cover lock has dropped. If the air vent/cover lock remains in its raised position, there is still pressure inside the pressure cooker. Continue to cool until the air vent/cover lock drops. After pressure has been completely reduced, remove the pressure regulator. Always remove the pressure regulator before opening the cover.
