Time 2h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Cut of Beef: Select a lean but flavorful cut of beef for your stew, such as chuck roast, brisket, or short ribs. These cuts will become tender and juicy as they braise in the liquid.
  • Brown the Beef: Before adding the beef to the stew, brown it in a hot skillet. This will help develop flavor and color and prevent the beef from becoming tough.
  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your stew. Common choices include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas. You can also add other vegetables like parsnips, turnips, or rutabagas.
  • Add Some Herbs and Spices: Herbs and spices will help to enhance the flavor of your stew. Some popular choices include thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, garlic powder, and onion powder. You can also add a touch of heat with some cayenne pepper or chili powder.
  • Braise the Stew Low and Slow: The key to a tender and flavorful stew is to braise it low and slow. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is fall-apart tender.

Conclusion:

This no-potato beef stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. With its tender beef, variety of vegetables, and rich gravy, this stew is sure to please everyone at the table.
