Instant Pot Beef Stew And Dumplings are the perfect winter comfort food to load into the pressure cooker on cold winter days. Featuring homemade cheese and parsley suet dumplings along with a beef stew made of beef, swede, potatoes, and onions.
Peel and slice up your onion and place it into the instant pot with the extra virgin olive oil. Sauté your onion until it starts to change colour. Add in your stewing steak and brown on all sides using the same oil. Then deglaze your instant pot with red wine.
Whilst the instant pot is warming up for its sauté, peel and dice your swede and potatoes.
Add in your swede, potato and seasoning and mix well.
Pour in 1 litre (just over 4 cups) of water or stock until the beef is covered.
Pressure cook for 45 minutes followed by a 15 minute natural pressure release. Whilst the stew is cooking make your dumplings and roll into balls.
Once the pressure has finished releasing, half the liquid and put half aside to save for beef stock for future recipes. Then stir what is left.
Place dumpling balls over and place the lid back on the instant pot. Set the valve to sealing again and cook for 0 minutes and then do a quick pressure release. Your dumplings will be cooked in the time it takes to go to pressure.
Once you have released pressure, serve up your stew and dumplings!

Notes
Stock. I always double the liquid I need into the instant pot. Then half can come out for beef stock for another recipe, then the extra liquid will mean it will take longer to go to pressure = more tender beef.Pasties. We used specific ingredients in this recipe to be able to make air fryer Cornish pasties with the leftovers. You can do the same or you can mix and match the ingredients with what you have in.Dumplings. You can use any dumplings. They can be with or without suet, you can also make bisquick dumplings too.Pressure. Because the instant pot is already hot, it doesn’t take long to bring the instant pot back to pressure to cook the dumplings.Thanks for reading our instant pot beef stew and dumplings recipe on Recipe This.
