BEEF AND MUSHROOM STEW



Beef and Mushroom Stew image

The sour cream is an unusual add-in for a beef stew, but it adds a lovely richness. This stew is definitely homey, but good enough for company.

Categories     Stew

Time 3h25m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 slices bacon, finely chopped
1 onion, peeled and chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 carrot, peeled and sliced into thick coins
1 stalk celery, thickly sliced
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (you can use less, if you wish)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup red wine
2 cups chicken stock
1 1/2 cups peeled white pearl onions (optional)
1/2 lb button mushroom, cleaned and left whole
1 cup sour cream (lowfat is fine)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf Italian parsley

Steps:

  • In a Dutch oven over medium heat, melt butter and add oil.
  • Add bacon pieces to fat and cook, stirring often, until bacon starts to brown.
  • Add onion, garlic, carrots, celery, worcestershire, and herbs and spices.
  • Cook, stirring often, until onion is softened (it takes about 5 minutes).
  • Pat beef cubes dry with a paper towel, if necessary, then dredge in flour until cubes are evenly coated.
  • Increase heat under Dutch oven to medium-high and cook beef, adding a few pieces at a time to pan; let pieces brown before adding new ones.
  • When all beef cubes have browned, add wine to pan and cook for 1 minute, stirring and scraping up any brown bits on bottom of pan.
  • Add chicken stock and bring to a boil.
  • Reduce heat to low, partially cover pot, and let simmer for one hour.

  • Continue to cook on low heat, partially covered, for another hour.
  • Remove pot lid and add mushrooms; simmer for 30 additional minutes; beef should be very tender.
  • Just before serving, remove pot from heat and stir in sour cream and parsley; return to heat to heat through; DO NOT ALLOW TO BOIL.
  • Taste, add more salt and pepper if necessary, fish out bay leaf (if you can find it) and discard, and serve.
  • I serve it with rice (personal preference) but mashed potatoes or egg noodles also work well.

OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW WITH MUSHROOMS



Old-Fashioned Beef Stew with Mushrooms image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons grapeseed or olive oil, plus more as needed
3 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 carrots (1 roughly chopped, 3 cut into 1/2-inch rounds)
4 stalks celery (1 roughly chopped, 3 cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
1 onion, roughly chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 cup hearty red wine, such as shiraz
2 quarts beef stock or reduced-sodium beef broth
2 sprigs thyme
1 1/4 pounds russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 pound mixed mushrooms (such as cremini, chanterelle, oyster and/or stemmed shiitake), sliced or quartered if large
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Chopped fresh parsley, for topping

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the beef with 2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Add to the pot in batches and cook, turning and adding more oil as needed, until browned all over, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
  • Add 2 more tablespoons oil to the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Add the roughly chopped carrot, celery and onion and cook, occasionally stirring with a wooden spoon and scraping up the browned bits on the bottom of the pot, until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes. Move the vegetables to one side and add the tomato paste to the empty side. Cook until it darkens around the edge, about 2 minutes; stir into the vegetables. Add the wine and bring to a boil.
  • Return the beef and any juices to the pot; add the stock. Bring to a boil, skimming any foam off the top. Add the thyme. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until the beef is tender, about 2 hours.
  • Strain the beef and vegetables in a colander set over a large bowl, reserving the cooking liquid. Tent the beef mixture with foil. Let the cooking liquid stand for 5 minutes and then skim off the fat on the surface. Return the liquid to the pot. Add the remaining carrots and celery and the potatoes and bring to a simmer over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the vegetables are just tender, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until they release their juices and brown, 10 minutes. (Pour off any extra liquid, if necessary.) Season with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk in the flour to make a roux, then let it bubble (do not brown), 2 minutes. Whisk in 2 cups of the reserved cooking liquid. Stir this sauce into the pot with the vegetables; bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium low and simmer, stirring often, until thickened, 5 minutes.
  • Return the beef to the pot, discarding the roughly chopped carrot, celery, onion and thyme. Add the mushrooms and simmer until heated through, 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; sprinkle with parsley.
