Directions
- 1
Heat the olive oil in the pressure cooker over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until softened and golden, about 3 minutes.
- 2
Add the smoked sausage and cook for 2 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant.
- 3
Add the ground beef, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, and stir until no longer pink.
- 4
Pour in the tomato sauce and water, crumble in the bouillon cube, then add the parsley and chives. Stir well to combine.
- 5
Add the diced potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and seal the pressure cooker lid securely.
- 6
Cook under high pressure for 20 minutes from when the valve starts hissing. Allow pressure to release naturally before opening.
- 7
Serve hot with steamed white rice or a fresh green salad on the side.
💡 Chef's Tip
For a thicker sauce, remove the lid after cooking and simmer uncovered for 5 minutes on low heat. Swap the smoked sausage for chorizo or spicy Italian sausage for an extra kick.
