Pot Roast With Mashed Cauliflower

Instructions

• Pat the chuck roast dry with paper towels. Season on all sides with salt and pepper.
• Put the Instant Pot on “Saute”. Once it says “Hot”, add the oil.
• When the oil is shimmering, add the chuck roast. Sear the meat until brown, about 3-5 minutes per side.
• Add the onion, carrots, and beef broth to the pot. Mix around until evenly distributed.
• Set the pressure knob to “Sealing” and close the lid until it beeps. Tip: Closing the lid can be tricky. Have the pressure knob at 11 o’clock and turn right.
• Select “Manual” and increase to 50 minutes. It will say “On” in a few seconds. Note: the Instant Pot will need to warm up for 5-10 minutes. Steam will be released and a few minutes later, the time will start counting down.
• After the time has expired, let the pot roast rest in the pot for 10 minutes. It will count up and read “L 0:10”.
• Using a towel or mit, release the pressure knob from “Sealing” to “Venting”. After the steam has been released, carefully take out the roast and veggies and transfer to a plate or cutting board, only leaving the liquid in the pot. Cover the roast and veggies with foil.
• Set the Instant Pot to “Saute” and once the liquid comes to a boil, add the flour. Whisk until mixed in and sauce has thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
• Hit “Cancel” and remove the pot. Pour the sauce into another small bowl and cover to keep warm. Then clean out the Instant Pot.
• Place the cauliflower florets in the pot. Pour in the beef broth.
• Seal the lid and set the pressure knob to “Sealing”.
• Select “Manual” and set time to 5 minutes.
• Once time is up, using a towel or mit, release the pressure knob from “Sealing” to “Venting”. After steam has been released, carefully remove pot and dump out the liquid.
• Using a potato masher or fork, mash the cauliflower until smooth.
• Add the salt, pepper, garlic, and sour cream. Stir until everything is combined.
• Serve with pot roast and gravy.
• Enjoy!
