Preparation

Step 1

DIRECTIONS:

In a pressure cooker, brown roast in oil on all sides. Add potatoes, carrots, onion and water. Close cover securely; place pressure regulator on vent pipe. Bring cooker to full pressure over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-high; cook for 40 minutes. (Pressure regulator should maintain a slow steady rocking motion; adjust heat if needed.)

Remove from the heat; allow pressure to drop on its own. Remove meat and vegetables; keep warm. Bring cooking juices in pressure cooker to a boil. Add bouillon, salt and pepper. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth; stir into juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with roast and vegetables.

Haven't actually made this yet, but I know it's a "5" because this is exactly how I make mine...except I also add smoked paprika ~1 tsp (or to taste)...Try it...It makes it even better!

I'm doing today this for the third time. It's now half past four and I expect to serve it at six and I will.
I'm using a bit more meat, more carrots onions and spuds only because my son and I eat lots.
Every time I've made it it's become easier but it's still as good, which is well nigh perfect. I found adding ten minutes to cover the extra pound of meat and the extra veggies is plenty, just let the pressure drop naturally.
It's absolutely bloody fabulous.
Thank you very much for this recipe.

YUM! This turned out absolutely perfect! I had a 4 lb roast so I guessed and added 10 minutes to cook time. Perhaps the person that was not happy because it was tough... did you let the pressure cooker let off the steam naturally? If you did a quick release, it would have definitely been tough. I am not familiar with pressure cooking, so I was pleasantly surprised and will do this one often! THANK YOU!

This was simply amazing! Thank you for this recipe. I have been serching for a pot roast recipe I would use regularly and this is the one! I followed it to the letter with the exception of adding some celery to the veggies. My entire family was drooling over it!! To the one comment about not knowing why yours came out so tough: I was wondering if you were using a slow cooker instead of a pressure cooker? They are very different and this recipe would come out tough in this amount of time in the slow cooker. Just a thought, it's the only thing I can think of that might have gone wrong if you followed the recipe =/

Well, I must say this is smelling awfully good. I just turned off the heat on my pressure cooker after adding 1 clove of garlic and some extra carrots.

I'll bet I'll be back here in about an hour with a 5 star review; thank you for the recipe!
