Instant Pot Braised Beef brisket with Radish: How to Make:
Fill a stock pot with cold water, and add the beef. Place it over high heat, bring it to a boil, and simmer for 1-2 minutes to remove any impurities.
Heat up 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in the Instant Pot on the saute setting. Add fresh ginger pieces, and allow them to fry for 2-3 minutes until they’re fragrant and crispy on the outside.
Stir in the blanched beef, Shaoxing wine, light soy, dark soy, and oyster sauces, 3-star anise, 5 cloves, 3 bay leaves, and sugar.
Close the cooker and lock the lid. Set the machine to cook to high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 45 minutes. When finished, allow the pressure cooker to release pressure naturally.
Add chunked radish and stir well to combine with beef. Put the lid on and seal it. Set the machine to cook to high pressure. Set the timer to cook for 10 minutes. Once the pressure is relieved and you’re completely done, use Quick Pressure Release again.
Unlock the pot and carefully open the lid. Switch the cooker to saute mode. In a mixing bowl, combine chicken stock and cornstarch. Mix well. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the stew. Simmer for a further 2 minutes.
