This recipe shamelessly stolen from: https://www.pressurecookingtoday.com/pressure-cooker-mongolian-beef/
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
* 2 pounds flank steak (cut into 1/4″ strips)
|
|
* 1 tablespoon veg oil
|
|
* 4 cloves garlic (minced or pressed)
|
|
* 1/2 cup soy sauce
|
|
* 1/2 cup water
|
|
* ~~2/3~~ 1/3 cup dark brown sugar (half this)
|
|
* Shakes of red pepper flakes
|
|
* 1/2 teaspoon fresh ginger (minced)
|
|
* ===
|
|
* 2 tablespoons cornstarch
|
|
* 3 tablespoons water
|
|
* 3 green onions
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
1. Season beef with salt and pepper. Put oil in the cooking pot and select browning. When oil begins to sizzle, brown meat in batches until all meat is browned - do not crowd. Transfer meat to a plate when browned.
|
|
2. Add the garlic and sauté 1 minute. Add soy sauce, 1/2 cup water, brown sugar, and ginger. Stir to combine.
|
|
3. Add browned beef and any accumulated juices. Select High Pressure. Set timer for 12 minutes.
|
|
4. When beep sounds turn pressure cooker off and use a quick pressure release. When valve drops carefully remove the lid.
|
|
5. We are now below the fold -- Combine the cornstarch and 3 tablespoons water, whisking until smooth. Add cornstarch mixture to the sauce in the pot stirring constantly. Select Simmer and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until sauce thickens. Stir in green onions.

## Notes
|
|
Had the beef marinate in some kosher salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder -- came out good, but a little salty. Maybe lower the salt
|
|
|
|
Taking out half the sugar made the dish way easier to eat, but did not allow the sugar to cut the salt
|
|
|
|
Highly recommend smaller than 1-inch pieces for the green onion
