- 3 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 1.5 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 3 tbsp Olive oil
- 2 Large yellow onions, chopped
- 4 Garlic cloves, minced

👨🍳 步骤
- 1
In a bowl, toss the beef cubes with flour, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
💡 专业技巧: Coating the beef with flour helps to thicken the stew as it cooks. - 2
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot. Remove browned beef and set aside.
💡 专业技巧: Browning in batches creates a better sear and prevents the meat from steaming. - 3
Add the chopped onions to the pot and cook until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
💡 专业技巧: Sautéing the onions well builds a deep flavor base for the stew. - 4
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute. Deglaze the pot with red wine (if using), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let the wine simmer and reduce slightly.
💡 专业技巧: Deglazing with wine adds complexity and depth of flavor. - 5
Return the browned beef to the pot. Add the carrots, parsnips, celery, beef broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
💡 专业技巧: Ensure the liquid covers the beef; add more broth or water if necessary. - 6
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the stew simmer gently for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Stir occasionally.
💡 专业技巧: Slow and low cooking is essential for tenderizing the beef. - 7
Remove the bay leaves before serving. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
💡 专业技巧: This stew is best served hot with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or polenta.
