"A pressure cooker is a great way to use flavoursome inexpensive cuts of meat, turning them from tough to falling-off-the-bone in minutes rather than hours. The classic pico de gallo salsa (translating to mean “rooster’s beak” sauce), made with fresh tomato, chilli and coriander, works wonderfully with the sweet and rich flavours of the braise to invigorate the palate...."
