Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of oil to the Instant Pot and let it heat gently.

Fry the beef until the color changes and every chunk is well coated, cooking until there is no excess moisture left, about 5 minutes.

Add 1 and 1/2 teaspoons plain flour to the beef and mix well, frying for 1 minute until aromatic.

Remove the beef from the pot and add 2 tablespoons oil and 1 tablespoon butter.

Add 1 large chopped onion to the pot and sauté well.

Add 4 minced garlic cloves and stir fry for 15 seconds until fragrant.

Add 2 tablespoons concentrated tomato paste (or one blended tomato) and mix well.

Season with salt to taste, then add 1 chicken stock cube or beef stock cube.

Sprinkle in 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon paprika, a dash of thyme, and a dash of rosemary.

Add a handful of chopped spring onions and mix everything gently.

Pour in 1/2 cup of water and let the flavors come together.

Add 1 and 1/2 liters of water, adjusting according to the type of pressure cooker.

Mix in the beef and cook until the meat is about 80% tender.

When the meat is almost tender, add 2 sliced carrots and 2 medium potatoes cut into chunks.

Mix gently and pressure cook again for just 10 minutes.
