No Tomato Beef Stew image

So many of the beef stew recipes out there have tomato ... but I am with a man who is allergic to citric acid. I've tried a few recipes, this is the resulting amalgamation based on my cooking experiences

Time 2h20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons flour
1 1/2-2 lbs lean stewing beef
2 -3 tablespoons cooking oil
3 1/2 cups beef broth (or 3 cups beef broth plus 1/2 cup beer)
1 medium onion, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon dried basil, crushed
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
3 cups beef broth
2 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups carrots, sliced thickly
1 cup celery, sliced
1 1/2 cups peas
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Place flour in a plastic bag, add a few pieces of beef at a time shaking well to coat.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large sauce pan. Add onions, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook another 30 seconds. Transfer to a large stew pot.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp oil in sauce pan. Add meat and brown well. Transfer to stew pot.
  • Add beef broth (and beer if using), basil and thyme. Bring all to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, or until meat is tender.
  • Add 3 more cups beef broth. Add potatoes, carrots and celery, cover pot, and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  • Add peas and simmer 15 minutes more.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste. You won't need much salt, as the broth has plenty.
