Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/2 onion, finely chopped or grated
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried mustard
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 fresh rosemary sprig, leaves removed and chopped
  • 1/2 cup frozen green peas
  • 2 cups loaded cauliflower faux-tatoes

Utensils needed

  • Wooden Spoon

Instructions

Step 1
Select SEAR/SAUTE and add the butter. Once melted, add the onion and garlic and sauté for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the celery and carrots and cook for the 3 to 4 minutes.  

Step 2
Add the ground beef. Cook, using a wounded spoon to break the beef into very small pieces. Once it is browned on one side, about 5 minutes, stir in the tomato paste. Add the broth, dried mustard, thyme, rosemary, and green peas. Assemble the pressure lid, making sure the pressure release valve is in the SEAL position.  

Step 3
Select PRESSURE and set to HIGH. Set time to 10 minutes. Select START/STOP to begin.  

Step 4
When pressure cooking is complete, quick release the pressure by moving the pressure release valve to the VENT position. Carefully remove the lid when the unit has finished releasing pressure.   

Step 5
Stir the beef mixture to combine well. Spoon the faux-tatoes over the top, spreading it out so it covers the filling.  

Step 6
Close the crisping lid. Select AIR CRISP, set temperature to 390 F, and set time to 10 minutesSelect START/STOP to begin, checking for browning about halfway through. If you’d like it crisper and browner, air crisp for 2 to 3 minutes more.  

Step 7
When cooking is complete, spoon the shepherd’s pie into bowls and serve immediately.
