How to make corned beef and cabbage with a pressure cooker and air fryer.

The Ninja Foodi combines the cooking power of a pressure cooker and an air fryer. So if you have both of those appliances, you can still make this delicious meal.

Place the brisket into the cooker pot with the fat-side down with the seasoning packet, stock, balsamic vinegar, onion, garlic, thyme, and bay leaves.

Cover the cooker with the pressure cooker lid and set the valve to sealing.

Choose the pressure cooker function and set the timer for 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes). Press start/stop to begin the cooking cycle.

Once the cycle is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes before finishing it off with a quick release.

Remove the brisket from the cooker and keep warm. Remove the garlic and bay leaves from the pot.

Add the potatoes, carrots, and cabbage to the pot with the liquid.

Cover the cooker with the pressure cooker lid and set the valve to sealing.

Choose the pressure cooker function and set the timer for 3 minutes. Press start/stop to begin the cooking cycle.

Once the cycle is complete, use the quick release to release the pressure.

Place the corned beef brisket over the vegetables and pour the glaze (see below) over the corned beef.

Close the crisping lid and set the Air Crisp function to 400 degrees and cook for 20 minutes.

Remove the brisket and allow to rest for 15 minutes prior to slicing.

How to make the glaze

In a small saucepan, heat the brown sugar and water over medium-high heat until it comes to a boil.

Stir in the mustard and continue cooking until the sauce is reduced about 2 to 3 minutes.
