Beef heart, an offal ingredient at risk of being forgotten in Quebec cooking, is quickly turned into a spicy stew with vegetables in a pressure cooker. Pressure cooking shortens the tenderizing process, which would normally take hours.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sear the Heart

5 min

Heat the cooking oil in the pressure cooker and sear the heart cubes over high heat for 5 minutes.

2

Add the Vegetables

3 min

Add the onion and red bell pepper and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and hot sauce.

3

Pressure-Cook the Stew

20 min

Add the beef broth and salt and close the lid. After the first whistle, cook over low heat for 20 minutes, then let the pressure release naturally.

Reminder

When cutting the heart, remove the white membrane and vessels; otherwise, they will remain tough after cooking.

Yüreği temizlerken zarları tam çıkaramadım sanırım, birkaç parça hâlâ hafif sertti; bir dahaki sefere daha dikkatli ayıklayacağım. Acı sosu azaltarak yapmama rağmen benim için yine de fazla keskindi.
