    Keto Beef Stroganoff In The Instant Pot

    You all know by now I absolutely LOVE my slow cooker, I couldn't live without it, but since I discovered my Instant Pot - I am now only using my slow cooker to cook my sugar-free grain-free granola, or to keep my mulled wine warm at parties.

    Why? Because an Instant pot is actually 9 appliances in one. Yes, it can pressure cook and slow cook (and saute, yoghurt maker, soup maker ...). And it is faster than any other cooking method.

    Using an Instant Pot (or pressure cooker), is the easiest way to have the most amazing healthy family meal on the table each night.

    • Mulled Wine and Slow Cooker with star anise

    Why An Instant Pot Or Slow Cooker Will Save You Time (And Money)

    No matter which one you choose to cook by, you can turn cheap casserole meat, into a juicy, tender and flavoursome healthy family meal.

    You can cook the same meal using the slow-cooker function in 6-10 hours, or using the pressure cooker function, will allow you to cook the same meal in only 30 minutes!

    Keto Beef Stroganoff: The Instant Pot OR Slow-Cooker

    I have given you recipe instructions below for both the Instant Pot or the slow-cooker.

    Simply follow the recipe as shown in the photos and video to cook Keto Beef Stroganoff In The Instant Pot. But if you would like to cook Keto Beef Stroganoff In The Slow Cooker, then all you have to do is throw all the ingredients together in the slow cooker in the morning, mix, set on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH 4-6 hours.

    Head over to see my full recipe for Low-Carb Beef Stroganoff in the slow cooker.

    What To Serve With Keto Beef Stroganoff

    Beef stroganoff is traditionally served with high-carb pasta, but rather than that stodgy filler which adds zero nutrition, why not serve with vegetables? I like to enjoy mine with zoodles or mashed cauliflower.

    • Perfect low carb vegetarian meals. Low carb can be so difficult for vegetarians, but these recipes change everything. | ditchthecrabs.com
    • A red bowl full of mashed cauliflower sitting on a wooden board

    By giving up pasta, you cut your carbohydrate intake and double (or even triple) your veggies. Add sour cream or cream cheese to the low carb beef stroganoff before serving, and place the sour cream/cream cheese on the table for the vegetables too. Sprinkle with parsley.

    If you are serving other beef dishes and want to know what are the healthiest side dishes to serve with beef, I have over 21 easy ideas, some don't even need a recipe.

    How To Make Keto Beef Stroganoff In The Instant Pot

    Watch the quick video below, but this step-by-step recipe guide will help you make this for an easy and quick dinner tonight.

    • Frying the beef cubes in the Instant Pot
    • Frying sliced mushrooms in the Instant Pot
    • Adding the tomato paste to the Instant Pot
    • Pouring the beef broth into the Instant Pot

    Saute/fry the ingredients for the keto beef stroganoff as shown in the Instant Pot.

    Place the lid on, turn the lid to click, and ensure it is fully sealed.

    Dial the Instant Pot to "High Pressure" for 30 minutes.

    Once it has beeped and finished, turn the Quick Pressure Release valve to release the pressure, then open the lid.

    • Locking the Instant Pot lid into place
    • Lock and cook at pressure for 30 minutes
    • Hand pressing the Instant Pot timer
    • Releasing the pressure valve on the Instant Pot

      OMG! We love this recipe. The taste is amazing. We ate ours with a dollop of sour cream. I love the tomato-paprika bite in each forkful of deliciousness.

      Surprisingly good. Not like any Stroganoff I've ever made. Very mild without the cream and salt I've made over the years. But dailing down the carbs and fat was the point, after all. I just noticed I used beef broth instead of Beef Stock which probably contributes to the mild flavor. Next time, and there will be a next time, I'll use a heartier stock, and more garlic to kick it up a bit, We served it on vegetable rotini which added a little earthiness to to meal.

      Waste of ingredients. Followed exactly. Added salt and pepper. Recipe turned out bland and watery. Even mixed in a whole cup of full fat sour scream at the end before serving and and it was still super runny. Flavor wasn’t layered in any way. Basic taste. Won’t be making again.

      Im in New Zealand and want to buy an instant pot, Do the ones on Amazon USA work in NZ or should I get one from Amazon UK?

        Head to Farmers Dept Store or Noel Leeming, they sell the Russell Hobbs version. That's the one I have and Farmers often have 50% off sales each Thursday (shh ... don't tell everyone 😉 ).

      Hubby won't eat Keto so I didn't tell him it was. I made it with hamburger meat since I didn't have any cubed beef. It was great. Hubby said to make it again soon. I had it over cauliflower rice and served him sticky rice
      Thank you for a keeper

      Love, love, love this recipe. This was the first thing I made in my new insta pot today. I’ve made it twice in 4 hours. Husband loves it! I only have a 3 quart because we are empty nesters now. Didn’t think he would love it that much. Needed to make it again for lunch tomorrow. This is a keeper.

      I can't wait to try this, Libby! I was wondering though, if you thought I could add chopped/sliced cabbage to the Instant Pot while the stroganoff is cooking. I usually cook them together on the stove top, but wondered if it might work to try putting it all in the IP.

        Hmm, I'm not sure. It sounds like a great idea but I have never tried it so can't 100% confidently comment. Why not try adding a cup or two of cabbage the first time you try in the Instant Pot, then if that was successful, add more the next time you cook it. Please come back and let us know how it worked.

      This recipe is so strange and poorly written. The ingredient list omits random things like where does it call for sour cream? But stroganoff always has sour cream... and what setting do you use in the end for “high pressure”? Is it pressure cook or another setting?

        The sour cream is used as a garnish or may be stirred through. Sour cream doesn't take kindly to the pressure cooker so is left as the final addition. The recipe states " Dial the Instant Pot to "High Pressure" 30 minutes. Once it has beeped and finished, turn the Quick Pressure Release valve to release the pressure, then open the lid.".
