Lydia's Portuguese Beef Stew image

This is Lydia's way to make beef stew. Lydia came to the United States when she was 18. She shared this recipe with me back in 1998. Very hardy, buttery and filling. Good comfort food. I have never done it, but I see where this could be converted to a slow cooker after sauteing the beef.

This was a great recipe! The beef was tender and the sauce was flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.

This stew is so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can throw it all in the slow cooker and forget about it until dinner time. The beef is always fall-apart tender and the sauce is so flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe.

I made this stew last night and it was a disaster. The beef was tough and the sauce was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong. I'm very disappointed.

This stew is amazing! I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The beef was so tender and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and delicious. I served it over rice and it was a hit with my family. I will definitely be making this again
