Recipe - Gees Swiss Steak (Pressure Cooker)

2 tablespoon Peanut oil
1 Beef arm roast or chuck
roast, trimmed and cut into
2 inch cubes
1 lg Onion, finely minced
4 lg Clove garlic, finely minced
1 cup Sliced celery
One half cup Diced bell pepper
4 cup Canned whole tomatoes with
juices
1 cup Tomato sauce
1 teaspoon Salt
Louisiana hot sauce to taste
One half teaspoon Crumbled oregano leaves

Put 2 Tbsp oil into a very hot pressure cooker pot. Braise the beef cubes
on all sides until well browned. Add the rest of the ingredients and stir
once to distrubute ingredients evenly in pot.

Place lid on pressure cooker tightly. Put pressure regulator weight in
place. Leave heat under cooker on high until the weight begins to jiggle.
Lower heat immediately to a level that keeps the weight just barely moving.
Time from this point on for 2025 minutes (depending on the grade of meat).
Remove pot from heat and cool.

Open the lid and stir gently. Check the consistency of the gravy. If it is
too thin, raise the heat to high and reduce to the desired thickness. If it
is too thick, add a little water.

My family especially likes this dish served over baked macaroni and cheese
with a side dish of peas, sauted with onions and pine nuts.
