Beef, Vegetable and Red Wine stew

November 3, 2010 By All That I'm Eating 9 Comments

I needed something slow cooked and full of goodness. Fortunately I had a fridge full of treats from the farmers’ market. I had some seriously good braising steak from Challow Hill and a congregation of fantastic veg from the greengrocer.

Ingredients

What you will need (for four to six portions):

  • Braising steak (at least 500-750g)
  • Seasoned flour
  • Vegetables of your choice – carrots, swede, onions, leeks, pasnips – a few good handfuls of each
  • Potatoes – 4-6 medium
  • Red wine (1 small glass)
  • Stock (750ml)
  • Oil and seasoning

Method

Cut up the steaks and roll them in seasoned flour. Fry them in a pan that you can also then put in the oven. Keep all the goodness in one place. I am not fortunate to own one of these modern day contraptions.

Get chopping! It’s not that bad once you get going and you get lots of goodies to go straight into the compost bin. It’s true when they say you don’t get something for nothing.

Into my cauldron of lusciousness I added a healthy (large) glass of red wine, a stock cube (I know, I’m sorry) and some water. I threw in a bay leaf for good measure and a load of seasoning. I find when I think I’ve seasoned enough, I season some more.

Put this into a preheated oven at about 180C. When half an hour has passed, put a tray into the oven smothered in oil/fat of your choice and let it warm up for 15 mins. While you’re waiting, peel and par-boil your potatoes.
Drain the potatoes and place them on the tray with the hot oil/fat. Put them back in the oven and turn them if they’re looking a bit anaemic.

Sorted. Great flavours with a ready made gravy. Crispy potatoes to soak up all the unctuousness. If you get a bit of bread to mop up the excess when you’ve finished…I won’t tell if you don’t.

    Not sure you need much more than that! One pot stews are the best.

The recipe is really versatile so you can use whatever cheese, pickle, chutney or whatever else you fancy and have lying around. #leftovers #ChristmasFood #turnovers #smokedcheddar #pickledonions #allthatimeating #christmasleftovers #decembereats #cheeseandonion
  • New recipe up on the blog! For those of us who like mincemeat, just not too much of it. These are my Mince Pie Crumble Bars, mostly shortbread with a slathering of mince meat and a deliciously crumbly top.

  • Christmas music on, production line assembled, homemade Christmas gifts go! I love making these to give as gifts; using up old jars, candy cane string and paper labels. I won't lie, I always do a whisk and taste test myself first. At least once. It's the malted drink powder that makes them 👌. Recipe for these is on the blog, just search 'hot chocolate'. #foodgiftideas #hotchocolate #homemadegifts #foodgifts #allthatimeating #handmadegifts #christmasfood #decemberdrinks #besthotchocolate
  • Hmmm. Ever so slightly too wide for the gap but looking adorned, sparkly and smelling lovely. Nothing matches on the tree, much like the rest of the house. Decorations from Kenya, Sweden, Bakewell and all sorts of other places. Put up a few days earlier than usual but we’re making up for no tree last year! #christmastree #mismatched #decoratingforchristmas #allthatimeating #smellssogood #christmaslights #fullofmemories
  • I ‘made’ this wreath a few years ago now. I say made, I mean I glued some @innocent smoothie hats to a willow wreath. I like that it’s colourful and uses the hats that I otherwise didn’t know what to do with. Apart from keeping dippy eggs warm. #christmaswreath #innocentsmoothiehat #homemadewreath #upcycled #minibobblehats #feelingfestive🎄 #colourfulwreath
  • Little bites of Christmas. Rolling these chocolate truffles in crushed pistachios makes them almost look like sprouts! Dark chocolate mixed with cranberries for a festive treat. Recipe is over on the blog, just search 'truffle'! #truffles #foodgifts #chocolatetruffles #homemadegifts #cranberrychocolate #allthatimeating #decembereats #christmasrecipes #pistachio
