Mexican Pork Stew In Pressure Cooker Recipe 45

MEXICAN PORK STEW

Steps:

• Heat a small saucepan and roast cumin seeds lightly until just toasty-looking, and then spread out onto a paper towel for them to cool.
• Put pork and all sauce ingredients into an Instant Pot, starting with the vegetables at the bottom.
• Grind the cumin in a mortar if you have one, although I used my trusty coffee grinder for this.
• Sprinkle the pork with the cumin and salt, mix it slightly.
• Close and cook on high for 30 minutes with natural release.
• Remove pork chunks carefully with tongs. The meat is falling apart at this stage so you have to be a little careful.
• Put in cilantro and fish sauce, and using an immersion blender, puree the veggies until there aren't any big chunks of veggies left.
• Put back the pork and enjoy!
