Pressure-Cooker Mexican Beef Soup

My family loves this stew, and I'm happy to make it since it's so simple! Serve the dish with cornbread to make the meal even more filling.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef stew meat (1-1/4-inch pieces)
  • 3/4 pound potatoes (about 2 medium), cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 2 cups frozen corn (about 10 ounces), thawed
  • 2 medium carrots, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups beef stock
