To use up the olive oil you could follow this main course with the Sauteed Banana, Granolan and Yogurt Parfait as a dessert. This recipe is typical of Jewish cuisine. From preparation to the plate, this recipe takes about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
Instructions
Place the tomatillos, chipotle peppers, tomato sauce, water, salt, and brown sugar in the work bowl of a food processor, and blend until smooth. Set the mixture aside.
Heat the olive oil in a pressure cooker with the lid off over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion and garlic until the onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Drop the brisket into the pressure cooker, and sear it on both sides.
Pour the tomatillo mixture over the brisket, bring to a boil, and place the lid on the cooker. When the pressure comes up, set the heat so the cooker develops medium pressure, and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
Allow the cooker to release pressure on its own (without using the quick-release), and remove the brisket.
Serve hot, with tomatillo sauce on the side.
Recommended wine: Shiraz, Tempranillo, Zinfandel
Shiraz, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel are my top picks for Beef Brisket. All these red wines can handle the meaty, smokey flavor of brisket. If you're talking traditional Jewish brisket, you'll want to look for a kosher red wine. One wine you could try is Luke Syrah. It has 4.2 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 20 dollars.

Luke Syrah
Luke Syrah is a full-bodied red packed with profound color, concentration of flavors and velvet elegance. The wine opens up rich and bold, suggesting pepper, licorice, dark chocolate, and spice followed by blackberry, blueberry, and candied fruits. A lengthy finish highlights the ripeness and complexity of the wine.
