Best 4 Cinnamon Beef Stew With Orange Gremolata Recipes

CINNAMON BEEF STEW WITH ORANGE GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Sprinkle the beef generously with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat, then add the meat in batches and sear on all sides. It's important that you don't overcrowd the pan. The meat needs air around it to achieve a crisp brown crust. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the browned pieces to a bowl to catch their juices. Repeat with remaining cubes. In the same pot, sauté the chopped carrot, onion, celery and garlic for about 2 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon. Add the tomato paste and stir for about 1 min. Add the broth and vinegar, scraping the brown bits from the bottom and stir until mixture starts to thicken. Add the meat to the pan with 2 cups of water, 2 tsp salt, a healthy dose of pepper, bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, sage and cinnamon sticks. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer with the pot partially covered for about 90 mins. If the stew starts to look dry, add more water, 1/ cup at a time. Simmer until the meat is fall-apart tender and the liquid in the pan has been reduced to gravy-like status. During the last 15 mins. make the gremolata. In a small bowl, mix the parsley, orange zest, thyme and garlic. Remove the cinnamon sticks. Ladle the stew into deep bowls and top with a few pinches of orange gremolata.

BEEF STEW WITH CINNAMON

Steps:

• Put the oil in a skillet or flameproof casserole with a lid and place over medium-high heat. Brown the meat on all sides, seasoning it with salt and pepper as it cooks and turning it only when each side is browned. (The meat can also be browned in the oven; see page 412.) As the meat browns, remove each piece with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Pour or spoon off most of the fat and brown the chopped onion lightly over medium heat. Remove and add to the meat. Add the pearl onions and brown them quickly; remove them and set aside separately.
• Add the garlic to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 30 seconds. Return the meat and chopped onion along with the red wine, stock, bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon, tomato paste, and additional salt and pepper. Cover tightly and adjust the heat so the mixture simmers gently. Cook for about an hour, or until the meat is fairly tender.
• Add the vinegar and pearl onions and continue to simmer until the meat is very tender, roughly 30 minutes more. (You can prepare the dish to this point in advance and let sit for a few hours or cover and refrigerate for up to a day before reheating, adding a little water if necessary.)
