Episode 37 - Quick Stew


Quick Stew

Ingredients:

1-2 lbs cubed beef
2-3 potatoes peeled and cubed
1 qt. beef stock
1/4 cup flour
12 ounces cold water
2 bay leaves

Directions:

Put potatoes in stock and cook till almost done.
While potatoes are cooking, brown the beef with salt and pepper.
Mix flour with cold water to make a white wash.
When beef is browned and almost done add to the stock and potatoes and simmer.
Stir in white wash a little at a time until desired consistency is reached.

Remember that the white wash will not reach its full thickening potential until the liquid is at a boil.

Check seasoning.
Add any veggies that you like in a stew. If they are raw, add them as the potatoes are cooking. Frozen take much less cook time and can be added when you add the beef.
