Time 2h5m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1.5 tbsp olive oil (, separated)
500g/1 lb stewing beef (, cut into 1.75cm / 2/3" cubes (Note 1))
1/2 tsp salt and pepper
1 onion (, chopped)
3 garlic (, minced (1 tbsp))
2 celery (, cut into 0.8 cm / 1/3" slices)
3 carrots (, cut into 0.5 cm / 1/5" thick slices (halve larger ones))
4 tbsp flour
2 1/2 cups (625ml) beef broth/stock (, low sodium)
1 1/2 cups (375ml) dry red wine, Guinness beer or stout ((Note 2))
1.5 cups (375ml) water
2 tbsp tomato paste
2 bay leaves
1 tsp thyme dried
1 cup frozen peas
2 potatoes ((any), cut into 1.5cm / 2/3" cubes)
1 tbsp (15g) butter or oil
200g/ 6oz small mushrooms (, quartered or halved)

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tbsp oil until very hot in a large, heavy based pot over high heat.
  • Pat beef dry with paper towels, then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Brown beef aggressively in 2 or 3 batches, adding more oil if needed. Remove browned beef into a bowl.
  • If pot looks dry, add a touch more oil.
  • Add garlic and onion, cook for 2 minutes.
  • Add carrot and celery, cook for 2 minutes or until onion is translucent.
  • Stir in flour, then slowly pour in beef broth while constantly stirring.
  • Add beer, water, tomato paste, bay leaves and thyme, stir well. Then add the beef back in.
  • Cover, adjust heat to medium low so it's bubbling gently. Simmer 1 hr 15 min or until beef is pretty tender.
  • Add potatoes and peas, simmer for a further 20 minutes without the lid. Add cooked mushrooms in the last 5 minutes.
  • The soup is ready when the potatoes are cooked and beef is very tender (see video).
  • Adjust salt and pepper to taste (I like lots of pepper in this!).
  • Ladle into bowls. Sprinkle with parsley and serve with crusty bread if desired. Try quick Cheesy Garlic Bread or super easy Irish Soda Bread!

OLD-FASHIONED VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP



Old-Fashioned Vegetable Beef Soup image

Better than Campbell's but just as comforting! Loosely based on a gourmet cooking magazine's recipe for Beef Barley soup, I didn't have any barley or okra, so I added root veggies to make it more hearty, like a rich broth with the chunkyness of stew. It turned out to be the best soup I've ever made! DH, stepson and baby girl kept coming back for more.
