SUNDAY NIGHT STEW



Sunday Night Stew image

Tender beef stew with potatoes, carrots, root vegetables, and a side of mashed potatoes is the perfect Sunday night dinner.

Categories     comfort food     dinner     main dish     meat     soup

Time 3h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter
2 lb. beef stew meat (chuck roast cut into chunks)
Salt and pepper
1 whole medium onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 oz. tomato paste
4 c. low sodium beef stock or broth, more if needed for thinning
Several dashes Worcestershire
1/2 tsp. sugar
4 whole carrots, peeled and diced
2 whole turnips, peeled and diced
2 tbsp. minced fresh parsley
5 lb. russet potatoes, peeled
1 package (8-ounce) cream cheese, softened
1 stick butter, softened
1/2 c. heavy cream
1 tsp. seasoned salt
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Salt and pepper stew meat. Heat olive oil in a large, heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add butter, and as soon as it melts, brown half the stew meat until the outside gets nice and brown, about 2 minutes. (Turn it as it browns.) Remove the meat from the pot with a slotted spoon and put it on a plate. Add the rest of the meat to the pot and brown it, too. Remove it to the same plate. Set the meat aside.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pot, stirring it to coat it in all the brown bits in the bottom of the pot. Cook for 2 minutes, then add the tomato paste to the pot. Stir it into the onions and let it cook for 2 more minutes.
  • Pour in the beef stock, stirring constantly. Add the Worcestershire and sugar. Add the beef back to the pot, cover the pot, and reduce the heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 1 1/2 hours to 2 hours.
  • After 1 1/2 to 2 hours, add the diced turnips and carrots to the pot. Stir to combine, put the lid back on the pot, and let it simmer for another 30 minutes. The sauce should be very thick, but if it seems overly so, splash in some beef broth until it thins it up enough. Feel free to add beef broth as needed!
  • When the carrots and turnips are tender, stir in minced parsley. Taste and add salt and pepper as needed. Serve piping hot in a bowl with mashed potatoes, letting the juice run all over everything. Sprinkle with extra minced parsley at the end.
  • Cut the potatoes into quarters and cover with water in a large pot. Boil until potatoes are fork tender, about 25-30 minutes. Drain the potatoes, then put them back into the same pot. With the heat on low, mash the potatoes for 2 to 3 minutes to release as much steam as possible.
  • Turn off heat, then add cream cheese, butter, cream, seasoned salt, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
  • Serve potatoes immediately or spread them into a buttered baking dish to be reheated later. To reheat, put them in a 375 degree oven, covered in foil, until hot.

RED WINE BEEF STEW WITH POTATOES AND GREEN BEANS



Red Wine Beef Stew with Potatoes and Green Beans image

Making an amazing stew is a whole lot simpler than most people figure. After you brown up your beef, all you basically have to do is throw a bunch of tasty ingredients in a pot and let it do its thing. Adding green beans at the end of cooking freshens up the stew and their snap is cool. You can make it completely in advance, as far as 2 days ahead of time. Just refrigerate it right in the pot and reheat it over low heat. You'll have to stir in a cup or so of water because the stew will have thickened up. (Do the water thing if you're reheating leftover stew too.) I use butter to brown the beef because it adds richness to the stew and makes for a creamier gravy. But you can substitute any type of oil for the butter if you want. Pretty much any decent red wine will do for stew; I like using Burgundy or Cabernet Sauvignon but the basic rule is that as long as you'd be happy drinking what you're cooking with you're in good shape.

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h20m

Yield about 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds beef chuck for stew, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons butter
4 medium carrots, peeled, halved and cut into 1-inch chunks
3 small onions, diced
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans reduced-sodium beef or chicken broth
2 cups dry red wine
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes
3 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 medium russet or Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 handfuls green beans, ends trimmed

Steps:

  • Season the beef cubes lightly with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a heavy 6-quart pot over medium heat. As soon as the butter starts to turn brown, add half the beef and raise the heat to high. At first, the beef will give off some liquid, but once that evaporates, the beef will start to brown. Cook, turning the beef cubes on all sides until the pieces are as evenly browned as possible, about 5 or 6 minutes after the water has boiled off. If the pan starts to get too brown at any point, just turn down the heat a little. Scoop the beef into a bowl and brown the rest of the beef the same way using the remaining butter.
  • Scoop out the second batch of beef, then add the carrots and onions and raise the heat to medium-high. Cook until the onion starts to turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour until it has been worked into the veggies and you can't see it any more. Pour in the chicken broth, wine, and crushed tomatoes, and toss in the rosemary. Slide the beef back into the pot and bring the liquid to a boil.
  • Turn down the heat so the liquid is just breaking a gentle simmer. Partially cover the pot and cook 50 minutes. Stir the stew several times while simmering so it cooks evenly and nothing sticks to the bottom.
  • Stir the potatoes into the stew, cover the pot completely, and cook until the potatoes and beef are tender, stirring occasionally, about another 45 minutes. Add the beans and cook for another 5 minutes until the green beans turn bright green and are cooked through but still have a nice snap to them.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, brisket, and short ribs are all good choices for beef 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 color to the stew. It also helps to seal in the juices.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth is the base of the stew, so it's important to use a good quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with real beef bones and vegetables.
  • Add vegetables to the stew: Vegetables add flavor, color, and nutrients to the stew. Common vegetables used in beef stew include carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes.
  • Season the stew to taste: Season the stew with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices to taste. Common seasonings used in beef stew include garlic, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 2 hours: Beef stew needs to simmer for at least 2 hours, or until the beef is tender. The longer the stew simmers, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the stew with mashed potatoes, rice, or bread: Beef stew is a hearty and satisfying meal that can be served with a variety of sides. Mashed potatoes, rice, and bread are all popular choices.
