Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds corned beef brisket with spice packet
- 4 cups water
- 1 large onion
- 4 garlic cloves
- 3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into chunks
- 6 small red potatoes, quartered
- 1 head green cabbage, cut into wedges
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional, for serving)
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the corned beef brisket under cold water to remove excess brine. Pat it dry with paper towels.
Add 4 cups of water to the pressure cooker. Place the corned beef brisket in the pot, fat side up, and sprinkle the contents of the spice packet over it.
Peel and quarter the onion and crush the garlic cloves. Add them to the pressure cooker around the brisket.
Lock the pressure cooker lid in place and set it to high pressure. Cook for 70 minutes.
When the cooking time is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 15 minutes, then manually release any remaining pressure.
Carefully open the lid and transfer the corned beef to a plate. Cover it loosely with foil and let it rest while continuing with the vegetables.
Add the carrots, red potatoes, and cabbage wedges to the liquid in the pressure cooker. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper.
Lock the lid back on and cook on high pressure for 5 minutes.
Perform a quick release of the pressure and open the lid. Check that the vegetables are tender; if not, cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
Slice the corned beef against the grain into thin slices. Serve the corned beef alongside the cooked vegetables. Drizzle with a bit of the cooking liquid for added flavor.
Optionally, top the cooked cabbage with a small pat of butter before serving.
