In this episode, I cook beef stew--my own recipe. It's a great stew recipe, if I may say so myself;) Here it is:
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lb. stew beef, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/4 flour
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped or pressed
- 2 carrots, cut into 1/4" - 1/2" pieces
- 1 lb. potatoes cut into 1" pieces
- 1.5 cups frozen peas
- 2 cups red wine
- 3 cups beef broth
- 1.5 tspns marjoram
- 1 tspn thyme
- 1 bay leaf
- salt & pepper to taste
Dredge the beef in the flour. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over med-high heat. Brown the meat for 5 minutes or so. Add the onions and cook for 4 minutes or so until translucent. Add the garlic and the carrots and cook for 3 minutes or so. Add the potatoes and the red wine. Turn up the heat to high and boil the wine for a few minutes, then add the peas and beef broth. Heat the beef broth and add the spices. Cover and cook for 1-2 hours. Serve with crusty bread or over egg noodles.
