Hachee
Hachee is a traditional Dutch beef and onion stew, slow-cooked to tender perfection. It's known for its rich, savory flavor, often enhanced with spices like cloves and bay leaves, and sometimes a touch of sweetness from gingerbread or apple butter. Typically served with mashed potatoes or red cabbage, it's a quintessential Dutch comfort food.

Remove the bay leaves and cloves (if not using a sachet). Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the sauce is too thin, you can thicken it with a cornstarch slurry.
