roast cut of meat such as bottom round or
rump roast.
Makes 4 servings
1 beef brisket, about to
3 pounds
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pound onions, peeled,
cut into ½-inch lengthwise slices
3 cloves garlic, peeled and

mushrooms, cleaned and halved
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon basil
1 can (15-ounce) diced tomatoes,
drained (discard liquid)
½ cup low-sodium beef broth
or stock
1 pound baby-cut carrots
Use a sharp knife to score the fat cap” of
the meat (do not remove the fat, it helps
to keep the meat moist and tender) so that
it will not curl when browned. Season the
meat on both sides with the kosher salt and
pepper. Select Browning and add olive oil
to the cooking pot of the Cuisinart
Electric
Pressure Cooker. When hot, brown seasoned
brisket on both sides, about 5 minutes per
side. Remove and place on a plate. Select
Sau and add onions and garlic. Cook for
2 to 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms, thyme
and basil. Cook, stirring for 5 minutes. Stir
in the drained tomatoes and stock; cook for
4 to 5 minutes. Add the browned brisket to
the cooking pot, topping it with some of the
vegetable mixture. Add carrots on top. Cover
and lock lid in place. Select High Pressure
and set timer for 55 minutes. When audible
beep sounds, use Natural Pressure Release
to release pressure. When float valve drops,
remove lid carefully, tilting away from you to
allow steam to disperse.
To serve, remove the brisket and vegetables
and arrange on a warm platter. Cover loosely
with foil. Strain the fat from the pan juices or
remove with a fat mop. Sauce can be served
as is, or for a slightly thicker sauce, select
Simmer and cook sauce for 5 to 10 minutes.
After the brisket has rested for about 10
minutes, slice thinly and serve with sauce
and vegetables.
