  • 4 cups water
  • 20 small red potatoes, chopped

Directions

  • Step 1:
    Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add beef in batches, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned on all sides, 3 to 5 minutes per batch. Remove browned meat from pot. Add wine to deglaze the bottom of the pan, scraping up all browned bits. Pour in water and mix with wine.

Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
  • Step 3:
    Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes.
