Yield: servings
Ingredients
Brisket
- 2 pound brisket
- 2 teaspoons fine salt
- 2 tablespoons mustard seeds
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons grated beetroot
- 3 tablespoons vinegar
- 3 cups bone broth plus water
Spiced Rice
- 16 ounces cauliflower rice
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1 teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Toppings
- 1 heart of romaine shredded or sliced
- ¼ cup minced cilantro
- 1 ripe hass avocado peeled and sliced
- 2 green onion sliced thin
Instructions
- Combine the brisket seasonings and rub into the meat. Add the beetroot and vinegar. Toss and set to marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes (or overnight).
- When ready to cook, heat the pressure cooker on sauté mode. When hot, add the brisket, fatty side down and sear for 2 minutes, then flip and sear the other side.
- Cancel the sauce function. Add in the bone broth, then enough water to submerge the brisket. Pour in any leftover marinade. Set to pressure cook on high for 50 minutes.
- Release the pressure manually. Remove the brisket from the pressure cooker and set it on a sheet pan. Shred with two forks.
- Place the oven rack right under the broiler. Heat the broiler at 500F.
- Spread the brisket out over half of the sheet pan and spoon a little liquid from the pressure cooker over it.
- On the other half of the sheet pan toss the cauliflower rice with avocado oil and seasoning and spread out flat on the sheet pan.
- Broil everything for 5-10 minutes, until desired crispiness.
- To make your bowls, distribute the cauliflower rice and brisket. Add shredded lettuce, avocado, cilantro and green onion.
- Drizzle everything with a little avocado oil and a sprinkle of salt.
