Beef Stew Recipe Biography
Source:- Google.com.pk
I can picture it now, streets lined with orange and yellowish leaves. Fall is almost upon us and it’s one of my favorite times of year.
I also like fall becauses it’s a time when the weather begins to change, and the nights become cooler. I love summer every time it comes around, but towards the end, I find myself missing cool crisp mornings and days filled with a chill in the air.
During this time, you have special days like Halloween and Thanksgiving. Also, if you are lucky and find yourself visiting Greece in the later part of October (the 28th), you will get to experience and join in on all the parades and festivities for, “Ochi Day.”
One of the main transitions we make from summer to cold is the things we consume. We go from seeking relief from the cold rather than the summer heat. And with that comes nice warm comfort foods.
Taking On Falls Coolness
When this time of year rolls around, my fiance and I love to explore different soups and other comfort foods. One of the things we make every year around this time, and it will carry over into winter as well, is “Stifado” (στιφάδο).
The reason we love making this is not only because it keeps us warm and taste delicious, but it also fills our home with wonderful scents. The reason for this is the long simmering process that really get all the flavors working together.
Making A Great Greek Beef Stew
Stifado is a traditional Stew. It is a combination of meat and onions in a divine broth. You may have had this with rabbit, as it’s a popular alternative in some areas.
The secret to this dish is the browning of the meat. When you do this, you are actually sealing in the juices, guaranteeing loads of flavor with every bite.
This has been a staple in my family for as long as I can remember. It is easy to make and perfect for large groups or a few days worth of food during a busy week.
So, when the nights begin to get cool, Stifado is here to keep you warm.
I hope you like it. Kali Orexi!
INGREDIENTS
1 pound beef, cut into squares
2 medium onions, cut into large pieces*
1 teaspoon oregano
¼ cup red wine
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 vine tomatoes, diced
1 can (14.5 ounces) of beef broth
2 garlic cloves, pressed
1 bay leaf
Salt
Pepper
½ cup flour
olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Add some olive oil to the bottom of a soup pot and heat over medium.
Lightly coat meat pieces in flour and sprinkle with salt.
Add to soup pot and brown pieces on all sides.
Once browned, remove from pot and set aside.
Now, add in a bit more olive oil, onions, and garlic, cook for 3 minutes.**
Next, add chopped tomatoes and cook for another 2 minutes.
Add wine and cook for 5 minutes, or until slightly reduced.
Add oregano, cinnamon, beef broth, bay leaf, salt, pepper, and one beef broth can filled with water***
Lastly, add meat back in soup pot.
Bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 1.5-2 hours, or until meat is tender.
NOTES
*Traditionally, shallots are used. We prefer regular onions however.
**If you prefer your onions to be firm and have a slight crunch, you may want to add them to the soup in the last hour of cooking.
**We add the can of water because we like the stew to have a bit more liquid. If you prefer less, skip this step.
