This Pressure Cooker Chinese Take-Out Beef and Broccoli is easy on your wallet. Cooking the rice at the same time and in the same pot, makes this Beef and Broccoli a One Pot Meal!
Place tall legged trivet into cooking pot. (Otherwise, you are ready to pressure cook.)
Place pan of rice on top of trivet.
Pour in two cups of fresh water (or chicken broth) and cover with lid (only if the lid has steam holes).
Back to Cooking
Lock on lid and close pressure valve. Cook at high pressure (most machines default to high pressure) for 3 minutes.
When beep is heard, wait 10 minutes and then release the rest of the pressure.
Open lid and remove bowl of rice and trivet and set aside, so that it finishes steaming while you cook the broccoli.
Add broccoli and mix through. Select Sauté/Browning and simmer if desired for a softer broccoli and thicker sauce.
Turn off heat and drizzle in Toasted Sesame Oil and stir. Serve over rice.
Notes
For a less spicy version, add the red peppers when you add the broccoli. Red peppers are very hot and just for flavoring. Most people push them aside.
Add Ins
Sliced carrots
Mushrooms
Water Chestnuts
Black/Sweet Soy Sauce is very thick and sweet, like molasses. Please make sure your Black Soy Sauce is thick and sweet and not a strong and salty soy sauce often called "dark" soy sauce.You can substitute the Sweet/Black Soy Sauce for Molasses or Brown Sugar and 1 teaspoon of Light Soy Sauce if you like, but I strongly advise against it, if you want authenticity.A "rice" cup is the little plastic cup which comes with multi-cookers, pressure cookers and rice cookers. It is simply a cup (not a unit of measurement) used to measure raw rice. It is not a proper dry measuring cup. A "rice" cup measures similarly to a 3/4 dry measuring cup. [Nutrition calculation is without rice.]For a delicious flavored rice, substitute 1/4 cup of Seasoned Rice Vinegar for 1/4 cup water.
