Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds venison, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium celery stalks, chopped
- 1 medium turnip, peeled and cubed
- 2 large carrots, sliced
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons coconut flour, for thickening
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions
- Set the Instant Pot to ‘Sauté’ mode and heat the olive oil. Add the cubed venison in batches and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer browned venison to a plate.
- In the remaining oil, sauté the onion and garlic until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add celery, turnip, and carrots, and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Return the venison to the pot and add beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, rosemary, black pepper, and the bay leaf. Stir to combine.
- Close the Instant Pot lid, set the valve to ‘Sealing’, and cook on ‘Manual’ or ‘High Pressure’ for 30 minutes. Once the cooking time is over, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes, then quick release any remaining pressure.
- Carefully remove the lid and switch the Instant Pot back to ‘Sauté’ mode. If the stew needs thickening, sprinkle in the coconut flour and stir well. Allow the stew to simmer for another 5 minutes or until it reaches the desired consistency.
- Season with salt to taste and discard the bay leaf before serving.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
