Print Recipe
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 pounds beef chuck roughly chopped
- 6 large carrots peeled and diced into one inch pieces
- 4 large parsnips peeled and diced into one inch pieces
- 3 large yellow onions peeled and diced into one inch pieces
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 12 ounces beer or coffee
- 4 tablespoons dark soy sauce
- 2 quarts beef or chicken stock
- ΒΌ cup demi-glace
- herbs to serve
- 2 pounds small potatoes quartered
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat olive oil and add the meat. Sear on all sides for about 6-8 minutes.
- Add carrots, parsnips, onions, garlic, beer, soy sauce, stock, and demi-glace. Simmer over medium heat for 2 hours, covered.
- While stew cooks, in a separate pot with boiling water, cook the potatoes until tender. Cooking them separately will assure they don't turn to mush in the stew.
- After two hours, uncover the stew, add the potatoes, and increase heat to medium high for 30-45 more minutes, stirring until everything comes together.
- Serve immediately with herbs on top.
