Instant Pot Red Wine Beef Roast

This roast and potatoes is so rich and so tasty. The wine subtly soaks itself into the meat and enriches the sauce, and the potatoes and chives are a perfect complement. It’s a lovely and light “meat and potatoes” meal that will tempt all the palates at your table.

You can use a cooking wine or dry red wine for this roast. And please…please…please…pretty please…with 3 cherries on top…please read the directions closely.

I do NOT want you emailing and commenting that your potatoes turned to mush. There is a way to prevent that. So read closely 😛

Hope you enjoy this “budget gourmet” meal in the Instant Pot!
