Beef Bourguignon
It’s no time for modesty…the beef stew I made last weekend was the most delicious stew ever!
Here’s the recipe:
1. Cut 3lbs of beef chuck into 1-inch cubs
2. Mix together 3 tablespoons of flour with some salt and pepper. Cover the beef in the mixture and sear beef in a skillet.
3. Peel and slice 3 large carrots (or more)
4. Slice 1 large onion
5. Cut 6 strips of bacon into 1 or 2 inch pieces (I wouldn’t bother with bacon in future)
6. Mince 2 cloves of garlic
7. Stem three sprigs of fresh thyme
8. Slice 1lb of fresh mushrooms
9. Cut 2 large potatoes into 1-inch pieces
10. Add all the vegetables and meat to the slow cooker.
11. Add a 10 oz can of beef broth
12. Add a cup of red wine
13. Add a tablespoon of tomato paste
14. Add a bay leaf.
15. Cook on LOW for 8-10 hours or HIGH for 6 hours.
