Ingredients

Stew

  • 908 g Chicken thighs (skin and boneless) breast would also be OK.
  • 1 Large Onion (roughly chopped)
  • 5 Cloves Garlic (roughly chopped)
  • 3 Medium Carrots (thinly sliced)
  • 3 Medium Celery sticks (roughly chopped)
  • 200 g Mushrooms (roughly chopped)
  • Season to taste
  • 2 tsp Mixed herbs
  • 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Worcester sauce
  • 100 ml White wine (optional) If not using add 100ml extra stock.
  • 200 ml Chicken stock
  • 2 Whole Bay leaves
  • 454 g Baby potatoes (halved)
  • 400 g Tinned tomatoes

Dumplings

  • 250 g Self-raising flour
  • 125 g Butter (must be cold) I used salted.

Instructions

  • Add all the stew ingredients to the instant pot. Stir well together.
  • Prepare the dumplings by adding the flour to a bowl and grating in the cold butter. Mix together gently with your fingertips until it forms a dough (use a splash of cold water if necessary). Divide into approximately 12 dumplings.
  • Put the dumplings on top of the stew and put the lid on the instant pot.
  • Set on high pressure for 10 minutes and leave under pressure for a further 10 minutes.
  • Perform a quick release and then remove the lid.
  • Either serve straight away or if you prefer your dumplings browned, use the air fryer lid on the broil setting for 5 minutes (alternatively grill - broil - in the oven)
