This is a hearty soup full of steak, potatoes, and veggies that should take hours to cook! But, in the Instant Pot you set it for 20 minutes and walk away.
The potatoes come out cooked, the steak comes out tender and it is infused with “cooked all day flavor”, in 20 minutes!
This is the perfect recipe to plan during the week. If it’s an especially busy week you can make it ahead, over the weekend, and keep it in the fridge to eat later in the week.
One of the “secret” ingredients in this Steak Soup recipe is the beef base. It gives the broth that rich cooked-all-day deep flavor. You will not get the same flavor from beef broth or beef bouillon alone. Beef base is like beef bouillons older, wiser, well seasoned big brother.
The peas and corn are negotiable. If you like corn more than peas, double up the corn and leave the peas out – and vice versa.
