Instant Pot Korean Beef and Brown Rice
10 mins prepServes 4
This tender beef is served in a rich Korean-inspired sweet and savory sauce. This makes a lot of sauce for soaking up with rice! Cook brown rice at the same time - all in the pressure cooker / Instant Pot!
0 To make sauce, stir together garlic, stock, soy sauce, light brown sugar, rice vinegar, Gochujang, and toasted sesame oil.
1 Combine sauce and beef in the base of the Instant Pot / pressure cooker.
2 Place a metal rack on top of the beef.
3 Combine rice and 2 1/2 cups water in a bowl that is approved for use in the Instant Pot / pressure cooker. (Make sure that all grains of rice are submerged in water.) Place the bowl on top of the rack.
4 Close and lock the lid.
5 Set the pressure cook / manual setting on high for 22 minutes.
6 Allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes and then manually release.
7 Carefully (it’s hot!) remove the rack and bowl of rice and set them aside.
8 Put the Instant Pot on the simmer setting.
9 Whisk together cornstarch and 2 Tbsp of water. Slowly pour cornstarch / water mixture over beef. Simmer, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, ~2 minutes.
10 Serve the beef and sauce over rice with sesame seeds and green onions on top. Serve extra gochujang on the side
