PATRICK'S FAST AND DELICIOUS BEEFSTEAK TIPS AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Prepare the noodles: Boil the noodles in the 3 quarts of water, with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil added, until tender. Drain and shock in a rinse of cold water. Re-drain and set aside.
• Season the steak pieces with the kosher salt and pepper.
• Over medium-high heat, fry the steak pieces in 2 tablespoons of olive oil, stirring frequently, until they are nicely browned on all sides. When browned, remove the steak pieces and add the 3 tablespoons of butter to the drippings -- reduce the heat to medium.
• When the butter has melted, add in the garlic and stir for 30 seconds and then, slowly whisk in the Wondra flour to form a fast roux (one minute). Then, again while whisking, add the beef broth.
• When the broth begins to boil and thicken, reduce heat again, to low, and add the Kitchen Bouquet, sugar, mushrooms, and seasoned salt. (Taste before adding the salt to make sure it's not salty enough already -- regular beef broth often contains enough salt on its own for this dish.) Allow to simmer until it begins to bubble, about three minutes, and remove from heat.
• Serve by plating noodles (re-heated in microwave), and then spooning beef tips/gravy over them.

SIMPLE BEEF TIPS AND NOODLES

Steps:

• Heat oil in the pressure cooker over medium-high heat and stir in beef cubes. Cook until the beef is browned on all sides; remove beef and set it aside. Drain and discard excess grease.
• Lower the heat to medium and add onion; cook and stir until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic and mushrooms and continue to cook about 5 minutes more, until garlic is fragrant but not brown.
• Pour in beef stock, beef stew meat, and any accumulated drippings; season with salt and pepper. Return to high heat, seal the lid, and bring to full pressure.
• Reduce the heat to low, maintaining full pressure, and cook for 20 minutes.
• While the stew is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Stir in noodles and cook until tender, stirring often, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
• Remove the pressure cooker from the heat and allow the pressure to drop naturally. Dissolve cornstarch into 1/2 cup of cold water. When the pressure has dropped, remove the lid and whisk in the cornstarch mixture. Bring the beef and mushrooms back to a boil and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Pour the beef over the noodles and serve.
