Directions

  1. 1
    Season the pork on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. 2
    Add oil to the Instant Pot and select the Sauté button. When display says “Hot”, add pork fat side down. Sear for 4 minutes or until brown then flip and sear another 4 minutes or until brown.
  3. 3
    Turn the pork onto one side and sear for 1 minute or until brown then sear the remaining side for 1 minute or until brown.
  4. 4
    Select Cancel.
  5. 5
    Add the broth and scrape the brown bits off of the bottom with a wooden spoon (this will help prevent a Burn error).
  6. 6
    Add the onion, potato, garlic, celery, carrot, and rosemary around the pork.
  7. 7
    Sprinkle the vegetables with salt.
  8. 8
    Cover the pot with the lid and lock. Set the steam release valve to Sealing.
  9. 9
    Select the Meat/Stew button and set the cook time to 25 minutes. The screen will display "On" until the preheating cycle is complete, about 10 minutes (if ingredients are cold such as the broth, it will take longer to preheat). It'll then change from "On" to "30". Steam coming from the valve during preheating is normal.
  10. 10
    Once the cooking cycle has finished and beeped, allow the pot to sit untouched for 10 minutes for a natural release then move the valve to Venting for a quick release. Once the float valve is down and all pressure is released, unlock and open the lid.
  11. 11
    Check the internal temperature of the pork with a thermometer, which should read between 145F - 160F. If pork isn't done, repeat steps 6-8 with a cook time of 5 minutes.
  12. 12
    Transfer the pork to a plate and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
  13. 13
    While the pork is resting, place a strainer on top of a large bowl. Strain the vegetables and keep warm for serving.
  14. 14
    Transfer the liquid back into the Instant Pot.
  15. 15
    Mix together cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir into the liquid then select the Sauté button. When display says “Hot”, bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the milk. Taste and add up to 1/4 teaspoon salt if necessary. Select Cancel to turn off the heat.
  16. 16
    Serve pork with vegetables and gravy.
