BEEF AND CABBAGE STEW



Beef and Cabbage Stew image

I agree that this is a very good recipe. My 93-year-old mother-in-law has recently told me that this is the best meal I have ever brought her, and there have been many. All the veggie prep can be done while the onions and bay leaves are simmering. I do add more broth when the veggies go in. The cabbage will add a significant amount of water but the beef flavor is key. It will freeze great in resealable bags for a quick meal so I normally double the recipe when going to this effort, which in my opinion is well worth it. The 2 hour simmering step for the beef can be done the day before.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, and short ribs are all good choices for beef cabbage stew. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in liquid.
  • Brown the beef before stewing: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to develop a rich, brown sauce.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to cabbage, you can add other vegetables to your stew, such as carrots, potatoes, celery, and onions.
  • Season the stew well: Be generous with salt and pepper, and add other spices to taste. You can also add a bay leaf or two for extra flavor.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: The longer you simmer the stew, the more tender the beef and vegetables will become.
  • Serve the stew with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or rice: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

Beef cabbage stew is a hearty, flavorful, and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively inexpensive meal to make, which is always a bonus. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a delicious beef cabbage stew that your whole family will enjoy.
