Veal Ragù with Porcini -- Pressure Cooker

Back in November, my mom and I both got electric pressure cookers in a pre-black Friday sale.  This was the first thing I made in it.  And it was AWESOME!  We all raved and raved about it.  10+ all the way. Served with egg noodles, highly recommend.

Ingredients:

1 c. water
1/3 c. dried porcini
1/4 c. olive oil, divided
2 1/2 lb. veal shoulder, cut in 1 1/2 in. cubes
salt
freshly ground pepper
1/4 c. all-purpose flour
1 large carrot, finely diced
2 small onions, finely diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
6 sage leaves, finely chopped
1/4 c. white wine
2 T. white wine vinegar
1/2 c. beef stock or low-sodium beef broth

Instructions:

1. Place the porcini in a microwave-safe bowl and cover with water.  Cover the bowl and microwave on HI for 1 minute.  Strain the liquid off into another bowl to reserve.  Rinse and chop porcini.

2. Season the veal with salt and pepper.  Place veal in a plastic ziploc-style bag and add flour, shake to coat.

3. Heat 2 T. of the olive oil in a large skillet.  Add half the veal to the skillet, stirring occasionally, and cook until browned all over, then transfer via slotted spoon to pressure cooker.  Repeat with second half of veal and remaining 2 T. oil.


4. Add the carrot, onions, garlic, sage, and porcini to the skillet and cook over low heat until slightly softened (around 2 min.)


5. Stir in the wine and vinegar, scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen and browned bits. Add the stock and 1/2 c. of the reserved porcini liquid (pour slowly to avoid letting any grit through).  Season lightly with salt and pepper and bring to a boil.


6. Pour mixture into pressure cooker insert, then cover/close/lock according to manufacturer's instructions.  Set for 'meat/stew' (or equivalent on your cooker) for 25 min of pressurized cooking.


7. Once the pressurized cooking has finished, let the pressure decrease normally for 5 minutes, then use valve to quick release remaining pressure.  Serve with desired side and enjoy!
