Beef and Vegetable Stew with Potatoes
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 carrots, peeled and sliced
- 3 celery stalks, sliced
- 2 large potatoes, peeled and diced
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine (optional)
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 cup frozen peas
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the beef stew meat, flour, salt, and black pepper, tossing to coat the meat evenly.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef in batches and brown on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.
- Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the carrots, celery, potatoes, beef broth, red wine (if using), bay leaves, and dried thyme. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1.5 hours, or until the beef is tender.
- Stir in the frozen peas and cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
- Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Discard the bay leaves before serving.
- Serve the beef and vegetable stew with potatoes hot and enjoy!
