Ingredients
 

  • 1 pound lean pork, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil 
  • 2 carrots, sliced thin
  • 2 celery sticks, sliced thin
  • 2 fresh tomatoes, grated or 2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
  • 2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
  • 1 pound green beans (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 potatoes, peeled and cut into 4 quarters
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Method
 

  1. If using fresh green beans, snap off ends. Cut the onions, carrots, celery, and potatoes.
  2. Turn the Instant Pot to saute and pour in the extra virgin olive oil. Once the oil is heated, add the pork and saute for 5 minutes.
  3. Add the rest of the ingredients to your Instant Pot and stir very well. You won't have a second chance to stir until the food is fully cooked so stir well now.
  4. Cover the Instant Pot and make sure the valve is set to sealing.
  5. Press the manual setting and set to 17 minutes. The Instant Pot should say "On" at this point. This means it is heating up and in a few minutes the timer will start counting down.
  6. Once the timer reaches zero, put on an oven mitt and turn the valve to venting. Wait for all the pressure to be released and remove the cover.
  7. Serve and enjoy!
