CORNED BEEF

Another classic. Wonderful beef. With vegetables. For sandwiches. Lots of possibilities. You can buy your canned corned beef but I am going to show you how to cook your own Corned Beef. You will find it far more delicious. It will be something different.

Ingredients:

1 corned beef brisket
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon thyme
2 potatoes
1 carrot
12 mushrooms
1 bottle of beer
Some water
Some salt to taste
Some freshly ground black pepper

I normally use my pressure cooker to cook my Corned Beef. It is fast ant it works very well.
First we will prepare the vegetables. We will peel the potatoes and the carrot. Then we will cut them in little pieces. We will cut the mushrooms as well.
Once everything is ready, we will put the beef brisket in the pressure cooker. We will put the beer and some water so that the meat is almost covered. We will add the bay leaves and the thyme now. Then we will close the pressure cooker and following the directions of the cooker maker, we will let the brisket cook for 30 minutes, starting counting when the pressure cooker begins to steam. At that moment you will have to lower the temperature.
Once the brisket has been cooking for 30 minutes, we will open the cooker and then we will add the rest of the ingredients: the potatoes, the carrot, the mushrooms and the black pepper. We will add some salt to taste as well.
We will close the pressure cooker again and cook for 30 more minutes. And then, after those 30 minutes, our Corned Beef will be ready. We will open the cooker again and remove the liquid. Now, just cut the Corned Beef in thin slices, always against the grain. And finally, serve it with the vegetables. Your own Corned Beef. What a difference!
