MAHOGANY BEEF STEW



Mahogany Beef Stew image

You will not believe the deeply satisfying flavour of this stew. This is our favourite wintry stew dish - comfort food to the max. The cooking time is more or less accurate, but it really depends on the cut of meat used - not everyone used chuck, and then, not all chuck is the same! You really have to poke and prod and taste to get it to where you want it...but that's what cooking is all about, isn't it? ;-)

  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables in your stew. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and green beans.
  • Add some herbs and spices: Herbs and spices can help to enhance the flavor of the stew. Some good options include thyme, rosemary, garlic, and paprika.
  • Cook the stew low and slow: The best stews are cooked low and slow. This allows the flavors to develop and the beef to become tender.
