How Long To Cook Octopus In Pressure Cooker

Pressure-cooker octopus stew - Stifado

Method

Place the pressure cooker over high heat and add 2 tablespoons olive oil.
Add the onions, sugar, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until they caramelize.
Clean the octopus and cut it into pieces.
Add the octopus into the cooker and mix.
Cut the garlic into pieces and add them to the cooker. Add the tomato paste and sauté.
Deglaze the cooker with the wine and as soon as it evaporates, add the tomato. Place the allspice, bay leaves, chili flakes, and thyme into a cheesecloth, tie it with kitchen twine, and place it into the pressure cooker.
Close the pressure cooker with the lid, turn the safety valve to the proper pressure indicator, lower the heat to medium, and boil for 30 minutes.
As soon as it is ready, turn the safety valve so that the air is released and the pressure cooker is depressurized. Alternatively, turn off the heat and allow 5-10 minutes for the pressure cooker to depressurize on its own.
Serve with thyme, rosemary, olive oil, pepper, bread slices, feta cheese, and oregano.
