Hearty Beef Stew With Green Peas And Carrots Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200°F. Place meat in a large bowl. Sprinkle with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper; toss to coat. Heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium-high heat in a large nonreactive soup kettle; add meat to pan in two batches. Brown meat on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch, adding an additional 1 tablespoon oil if necessary. Transfer meat to a platter.
• Add onions to pot; sauté until almost softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium and add garlic; continue to sauté for about 30 seconds longer. Stir in flour and cook until lightly colored, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in wine, scraping up any browned bits that may have stuck to pan. Add chicken broth, bay leaves and thyme; bring to simmer. Add meat and return to a simmer. Cover and place in oven, and simmer until meat is just tender, 2 1/2 to 3 hours. (Stew can be cooled at this point, covered and refrigerated up to 3 days.)
• Before serving, bring 1 inch water to a boil in a steamer pot. Place carrots in steamer basket and lower into pot. Steam until just tender, about 6 minutes.
• Add steamed carrots and uncooked peas to fully cooked stew; cover and let stand to blend flavors, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley, adjust seasonings and serve.

Steps:

• Combine beef, potatoes, carrots, and onion in a slow cooker crock.
• Mix cream of mushroom soup, tomato sauce, onion soup mix, parsley, and pepper together in a bowl; pour over the beef mixture.
• Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours. Stir before serving.

Steps:

• Pre heat over to 150 degrees C/ gas mark 2.
• Chop the onion, carrots, swede and parsnip and add to a casserole dish. Peel the potatoes and cut into chunks. Add these also.
• Cut the braising steak into bite size pieces and add this, raw, to the casserole dish also.
• Sprinkle over the beef stock, then fill the casserole dish with cold water, so that the water just covers the ingredients.
• Put a lid on the casserole dish and place in the centre of the oven. Leave to cook for between 4 to 6 hours. The longer you leave it to cook, the more tender the meat will be. Stir every hour to make sure the ingredients don't stick. Approx. 15 minutes before the stew is ready, add the gravy granules to the mixture and stir well. Add a little at a time until the mixture is as thick as you like it. Add 4 or 5 shakes of tabasco sauce. Leave to cook in the oven for a further 15 minutes until warmed through. Serve immediately with crusty bread or in a giant Yorkshire Pudding.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over med-high heat until shimmering.
• Add onions, tomato paste, garlic, and thyme; cook until onions are softened and lightly browned, 8-10 minutes.
• Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute.
• Slowly whisk in chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits and smoothing out any lumps; transfer to slow cooker.
• Stir in beef broth, soy sauce, and bay leaves.
• Season beef with salt and pepper and nestle into slow cooker.
• Toss potatoes and carrots with remaining tablespoon oil, season with salt and pepper, and wrap in foil packet.
• Lay foil packet on top of stew.
• Cover and cook until beef is tender, 9-11 hours on LOW or 5-7 hours on HIGH.
• Transfer foil packet to plate; let stew settle for 5 minutes, then remove fat using large spoon; discard bay leaves.
• Carefully open foil packet, and stir vegetables with any accumulated juices into stew.
• Stir in peas and let sit until heated through, about 5 minutes (adjust stew consistency with additional hot broth as needed).
• Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Steps:

• In a 4-qt. Dutch oven or baking dish, layer the first 12 ingredients; pour tomato juice over all. Cover and bake at 325° for 3 hours, stirring occasionally, or until the meat and vegetables are tender. Remove bay leaves before serving.

Steps:

• Generously season beef with salt and pepper. Dust with flour and shake off excess. Heat a Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high, and swirl in 2 tablespoons oil.
• Add half of beef in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until browned in places, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate, leaving fat in pot. Brown remaining beef; transfer to plate.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Swirl remaining 1 tablespoon oil into pot, still over medium-high heat. Cook onion and bell pepper until onions are golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add tomato paste and berbere seasoning and cook, stirring frequently, until tomato paste is caramelized, 1 minute. Add Worcestershire sauce and wine; boil until mostly evaporated.
• Return beef and any accumulated juices to pot along with broth. Bring to a boil. Cover pot, transfer to oven, and cook 1 1/2 hours. Remove pot from oven and stir carrots into stew. Cover and continue cooking in oven until beef is fork-tender and carrots are easily pierced with the tip of a knife, about 1 hour more. Stir in chickpeas; return to oven for 5 minutes more, just to heat through.
• Ladle stew into shallow bowls, sprinkle with mint, and serve. Cooled stew can be transferred to an airtight container and refrigerated up to 2 days, or frozen up to 3 months.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place beef cubes into a large bowl. Season with kosher salt and black pepper. Add flour and paprika and toss until evenly coated.
• Heat oil in an oven-safe Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes in batches until dark brown, about 4 minutes per side. Flip or stir gently with a wooden spoon until all edges are dark brown, 2 to 3 minutes more. Remove beef and set aside.
• Add onions to the beef fat with more salt and pepper; cook and stir until they begin to caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and stir until aromatic and soft, about 30 seconds. Stir in tomato paste and cook until it turns brown and begins to caramelize and stick to the bottom of the pan. Deglaze with red wine, scraping up the flavorful browned bits on the bottom. Let the wine reduce until almost dry again, about 3 minutes.
• Add dried thyme, dried rosemary, herbes de Provence, and bay leaves. Add 2 cups beef broth and Worcestershire, stir, and bring to a boil. Add the seared beef cubes back into the stew liquid. Remove from heat and cover the pot.
• Braise in the preheated oven until meat is almost tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from the oven. Add carrots, potatoes, and more beef broth if needed. Cover and return to the oven to braise until meat and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes longer.
• Discard bay leaves. Stir in peas, fresh rosemary, and fresh thyme. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a stockpot, combine stock and reserved beef and tomato pieces. Cover; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Add onions, carrots, and dill. Cook, uncovered, until onions are soft, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• When ready to serve, add the peas, and cook just until tender and heated through, about 3 minutes. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine tomatoes, tapioca, basil, sugar, salt and pepper in a bowl and let stand for 15 minutes.
• Place potatoes, carrots, onions, and celery in bottom of 5 quart slow-cooker.
• Brown meat cubes in oil over medium heat until just browned; remove with slotted spoon to slow-cooker. Discard drippings.
• Pour tomato mixture over meat; cover slow-cooker and cook on high for 5-6 hours or until meat and veggies are tender.
• Note: When I made this, after 4 hours I reduced heat to low and stirred it all together. Then I let it cook on low for 1-2 hours more and it came out perfect for me.
