Directions
- Blend garlic, lemongrass, ginger, tomato pureé, and dark soy sauce. Season beef with the rempah paste. Move slider to AIR FRY/HOB mode and select SAUTÉ function on setting 3. Brown the beef in the SmartLid™ for 10 minutes.
- After browning the beef, add the diced red onions and cook until soft. Then add the carrot chunks and about ½ cup of water.
- Place the reversible rack into the SmartLid™ on top of the meat. Halve or quarter potatoes and place them on the rack in the SmartLid™.
- Move slider to PRESSURE mode and PRESSURE COOK on Hi for 45 minutes. Remove potatoes and mash with salt, milk, herbs and butter for a slightly drier consistency. Adjust meat seasoning as needed. Add peas or other vegetables for colour, if desired.
- Layer meat mixture in baking dish and top with mashed potatoes. Move slider to AIR FRY/HOB mode and select GRILL function. Grill for a few minutes to melt and crisp cheese on top.
- Sprinkle with fresh herbs like Thai basil and garnish with edible flowers. Serve hot, ensuring each plate has a good balance of the meaty base and the potato topping.
