Baja Pork Chops (Pressure Cooker)

A quick and tasty one pot meal! The original recipe comes from the Pressured Cook and includes Sweet Potatoes, however I’ve found it very difficult to keep from over cooking the sweet potatoes so substituted red potatoes. Also made some other changes to the recipe to ‘kick it up a notch’. Total time includes marinading the pork chops.

Beef in Beer – 2-Qt Pressure Cooker

Entered for safe-keeping, from “Quick Cuisine” by Kuhn Rikon. This recipe calls for the vegetables and sauce to be pureed after cooking, to be used as a sauce over the meat. Personally, I would prefer it chunky. The sauce is also good served over vegetables, especially mashed potatoes. I hear Chimay beer from Belgium is the best.

Hungarian Cabbage Rolls

Handed down from my husband’s grandmother who came from Hungary on her honeymoon through Ellis Island. I am sure it was changed slightly to American-type ingredients.

Karmir Pilaf – Armenian “Red Rice”

This dish is the definition of comfort food for Iranian-Armenians. Aromatic basmati rice, tender chunks of beef, and fluffy potatoes are cooked together in an unctuous spiced tomato sauce. My version has a little Tex-Mex twist: salsa!
