There's nothing better than concluding a crisp fall day with a hot bowl of stew.
My Mom has been making this recipe for our family as long as I can remember.
Ingredients: 2-3 Cans of Beef Broth, 1 Can Tomato Sauce, 6 Carrots, 6 Stalks of Celery, an Onion, 2 Russet Potatoes, 3 Bay Leaves, 2 lbs of Stew Meat (the general rule is 1/4 lb per person per meal), 2 Tablespoons of Vegetable Oil, 2 cups of Flour, Salt and Pepper to Taste. Also grab a large pot.
Mix 2 cups of flour with 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of paper on a plate
Gently dredge the beef in the flour mixture
Put 2 Tablespoons of oil in the pot and brown your beef. This happens pretty quickly. Just brown it on both sides– not totally cook it.
Chop up the onions, celery
Carrots and potatoes
Add the Beef Broth, Tomato Sauce, Onions, and Bay Leaves.
My Mom like to snap them them release the flavor.
Here's the work in progress.
Cover and simmer on high heat for 45 minutes then add Carrots, Celery and Potatoes. Continue stirring periodically.
Let all ingredients simmer together for another 30 minutes, still stirring to prevent the potatoes from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Serve over rice or with crusty french bread.
This was my dinner tonight!
