beef stew
4 pounds roast, trimmed, cubed
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup olive oil
2 large onion, diced
6 ounces tomato paste
1 cup red wine
1 pound potato, cubed
1/2 pound baby carrots
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon thyme
1 bay leaf
1 cup frozen peas
Coat the beef in the flour. Heat a few tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meat, a few pieces at a time, adding more oil as necessary. Transfer to a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker. Add the onions to the skillet and cook over medium heat until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and coat the onions; transfer to the cooker. Pour the wine into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits; add to the cooker. Stir in the potatoes, carrots, broth, salt, thyme, and bay leaf. Cover and cook on low heat for 7 1/2 hours, or on high for 4 hours. Add the peas and heat through.
Serves 10.

mmm…beef stew…one of my fave fall/winter foods…do you make corn bread to go with yours?
I prefer rolls with my beef stew and corn bread with my soup. I think it has to do with the thickness of the broth. I know that sounds weird. For thinner broths I like cornbread because it soaks it up like a sponge. A roll is good for sopping up thicker broth. How bout you?
Homemade rolls…yum…I’ll take those with anything, but I do tend to like cornbread with beef stew…and any kind of beans..probably because that’s what my mom always made…
