Instructions
Step 1 of 10:
Heat the olive oil in the pressure cooker and fry the bacon until crispy. Remove and set aside. Brown the beef in batches in the same fat. Remove and set aside.
Step 2 of 10:
Sauté the onions, carrots, and garlic in a pressure cooker until lightly browned.
Step 3 of 10:
Add the browned meat and bacon back in. Sprinkle with flour and stir well. Stir in the tomato paste and sauté briefly.
Step 4 of 10:
Add the red wine and beef stock. Add the bouquet garni and season with salt and pepper. Close the lid and cook on the highest setting (2nd ring) for approx. 45 minutes.
Step 5 of 10:
Heat the butter in a pan and fry the mushrooms until golden brown.
Step 6 of 10:
After about 40 minutes of cooking time, add the mushrooms to the beef bourguignon and simmer in the pressure cooker for another 5 minutes. Then release the pressure.
Step 7 of 10:

Step 8 of 10:
Drain the potatoes and mash with milk and butter until creamy. Season to taste with salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
