sacrifice flavor by skipping the "browning the meat" step
usually required for good flavor, which makes this recipe even
quicker and easier! Serves: 8
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 1/2-pound pork roast
- 2 stalks celery
- 2+/- cups apple cider or 1 cup apple juice and 1+/- cup
water
- 2 cups cleaned baby carrots
- 4 cups sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
- 2-4 apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- Sea salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Optional: 1 medium onion, peeled and diced or 1
tablespoon dried onion flakes
- Optional: 1 teaspoon salt-free Bavarian Seasoning
- Optional: Potatoes and/or Sweet Potatoes, peeled and cut
into quarters
Instructions:
Clean and cut the celery stalks in half and lay them on the
bottom of the pan. Place the roast on top of the celery. Pour
choice of liquid into the pan, using only enough to come about
half-way up the pan. Salt and pepper the roast to taste.
Put the remaining vegetables, apple slices, and sauerkraut
around the roast.
Put the lid of the pressure cooker into place and lock into
place. Place pan over medium-low heat and bring to a simmer.
Using this method, it will take the pan about 15-30 minutes to
come to pressure, depending on the amount of and temperature of
the food in the pan. Maintain low pressure for 45 minutes.
At the end of the cooking time, remove the pan from the
burner. Release pressure according to manufacturer's directions.
Serve immediately, or allow to rest covered in the pan for
twenty minutes.
Note #1: If the roast is cut into 1-2" cubes, 30 minutes of
pressure should be sufficient to cook and tenderize the roast.
Note #2: Allow any leftover roast to remain in the resulting
broth until the broth and roast cool to room temperature. The
roast will be moist and juicy if you do.
Note #3: This recipe was tested using a 3.5 Liter/3.7 Quart
Kuhn Rikon pressure cooker in stick-resistant stainless
steel, known for it's
five-fold safety system.
