Absolutely worth a try. I think tapenade would be a great substitute too.
Tapenade is a great idea, thanks!
PORK STEW WITH SWEET PEPPERS AND POTATOES pg213 (pressure cooker chapter)
This was absurdly easy. The hardest step was trimming the fat off the pork butt (shoulder); I did not do a very good job and should have cut smaller (bite-size) pieces. My excuse is that I make a lot of pulled pork where size doesn’t matter.
No photos but the recipe is indexed in EYB and includes a photo. I cut back on the fennel seeds and would skip them entirely next time, maybe add more oregano or some marjoram instead. I also think it could work well with turkey thighs instead of pork, for those who don’t eat pork - may need to adjust the cooking time. And like most InstantPot braises, it could probably work on the stovetop too.
