Tomato Bredie image

This is a traditional South African meal, and is good winter fare. Bredie is an old Cape name for a dish of meat and vegetables stewed together so that the flavors intermingle. The gravy is rich, thick and full-bodied, and is obtained by using meat with a fair amount of bone and fat, rolling it in flour and browning it before the vegetables are added. The flavor improves if left a day or two before eating. Nice with brown rice.

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 ½ pounds lamb or mutton breast chops, chopped into portions
2 tablespoons cake flour
1 large onion, chopped
2 ¼ pounds fresh tomatoes, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 whole white peppercorns
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 dash Worcestershire sauce
1 cube beef bouillon cube
2 medium potatoes, quartered

Steps:

  • Heat oil over medium-high heat in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Dredge meat in flour, and cook in hot oil until well browned.
  • Stir in onions, and cook until onions are soft, about 5 minutes. Mix in tomatoes. Season with salt, black pepper, white peppercorns, bay leaves, brown sugar, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and beef bouillon cube. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 1/4 hours. Stir occasionally, making sure nothing sticks on the bottom of the pot.
  • Stir in the potatoes and cook for an additional 45 minutes, until the potatoes are done and the meat is tender.
