  2. Ok, listen to me well. You can prepare the pork two ways.
  3. One - You can do beef chops (large pieces).
  4. Two - You can cut the beef into bitable chunks. Say about 2 inches thick.
  5. Add the seasonings to the beef, allow marinating overnight, Although it is a method it might not be necessary.
  6. Put to heat a pressure-cooker pot with the gauge on eight. Next add the oil, and then the beef, with browning. Stir in well!
  7. Shortly after that, add half the seasonings. Stir in for thirty seconds. Cover the pot with a regular pot’s lid for five to six minutes.
  8. Next add 3 cups of boiled hot water. Then stir in! This time covers the pressure-cooker pot with the pressure-cooker’s lid correctly. Once it starts to whistle gauge the stove on low flame. Allow to pressure cook for 20 minutes if doing beef chops.
