Categories     comfort food     dinner     main dish     meat     soup

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter
2 lb. beef stew meat (chuck roast cut into chunks)
Salt and pepper
1 whole medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 oz. tomato paste
4 c. low sodium beef stock or broth, more if needed for thinning
Several dashes Worcestershire
1/2 tsp. sugar
4 whole carrots, peeled and diced
2 whole turnips, peeled and diced
2 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
5 lb. russet potatoes, peeled
1 package (8-ounce) cream cheese, softened
1 stick butter, softened
1/2 c. heavy cream
1 tsp. seasoned salt
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Salt and pepper stew meat. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add butter, and as soon as it melts, brown half the stew meat until the outside gets nice and brown, about 2 minutes. (Turn it as it browns.) Remove the meat from the pot with a slotted spoon and put it on a plate. Add the rest of the meat to the pot and brown it, too. Remove it to the same plate. Set the meat aside.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pot, stirring it to coat it in all the brown bits in the bottom of the pot. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the tomato paste to the pot. Stir it into the onions and let it cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Pour in the beef stock, stirring constantly. Add the Worcestershire and sugar. Add the beef back to the pot, cover the pot, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours.
  • After 1 1/2 to 2 hours, add the diced turnips and carrots to the pot. Stir to combine, put the lid back on the pot, and let it simmer for another 30 minutes. The sauce should be very thick, but if it seems overly so, splash in some beef broth until it thins it up enough. Feel free to add beef broth as needed!
  • When the carrots and turnips are tender, stir in minced parsley. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve piping hot in a bowl with mashed potatoes, letting the juice run all over everything. Sprinkle with extra minced parsley at the end.
  • Cut the potatoes into quarters and cover with water in a large pot. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, about 25-30 minutes. Drain the potatoes, then put them back into the same pot. With the heat on low, mash the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes to release as much steam as possible.
  • Turn off heat, then add cream cheese, butter, cream, seasoned salt, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  • Serve potatoes immediately or spread them into a buttered baking dish to be reheated later. To reheat, put them in a 375 degree oven, covered in foil, until hot.

Categories     Main     Soup     stew

Time 2h20m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2.5 lbs beef chuck roast (partially trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes)
freshly ground black pepper
2 TB olive oil
4 large carrots (peeled and cut int 1-inch pieces)
3 stalks celery (cut into 1-inch pieces)
1 large onion (roughly chopped)
8 garlic cloves (roughly chopped)
1 1/2 cups dry red wine (a good one you'd like to drink with dinner)
2 TB flour
4 cups good quality regular strength beef broth
1 TB sugar
12 oz baby potatoes (peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces)
2 TB whole grain mustard
freshly chopped parsley for garnish

Steps:

  • Towel dry beef pieces to remove all excess moisture. Sprinkle liberally with pepper throughout. Heat oil in large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add beef and brown on all sides, working in batches so you don't overcrowd the pieces (they won't brown if overcrowded.) Transfer beef to a plate.
  • Add a bit of broth to pot to loosen and scrape brown bits from bottom. Add carrots, celery, and onions and stir until softened, 5 min. Add garlic, stirring 1 minute. Add red wine; bring to simmer and simmer until liquid is halfway evaporated, about 4 minutes, stirring to loosen bottom bits.
  • Quickly whisk together the flour and all broth; add to the pot with sugar. Add back the browned beef and bring to boil. Reduce to simmer, cover, and cook up to 2 hours or until beef is fork tender. Add the potatoes and mustard during the last 20 minutes of cooking. Taste and season with salt/pepper if needed. Serve warm, garnished with parsley if desired. Great over rice or with rustic bread. Leftovers are delicious.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality beef. Chuck roast or short ribs are great choices for beef stew, as they have a good amount of marbling and will become tender when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the beef before stewing. This will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a variety of vegetables. Carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes are all classic stew vegetables, but you can also add other vegetables like parsnips, turnips, or sweet potatoes.
  • Use a good-quality broth. Beef broth or chicken broth are both good choices, and you can also use a combination of the two. Avoid using water, as it will make the stew bland.
  • Season the stew well. Salt, pepper, garlic, and thyme are all classic stew seasonings, but you can also add other spices and herbs to taste.
  • Cook the stew slowly. The longer you cook the stew, the more tender the beef will become. Aim for at least 2 hours of cooking time, or even longer if you have the time.
  • Serve the stew with a side of bread or mashed potatoes. This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Beef stew is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a beef stew that is sure to please everyone at the table.
