Stews are generally considered a pure comforting food for colder weather evenings. If you are looking for a warm and filling meal to help to stay cozy and nourished, you are at the right place.
This Beef Carrot Potato Stew has a rich taste and the meat is succulent.
This stew recipe is also a great meal option during the holiday season when your family and friends gather together to celebrate and share meals. You can make it in a large pot and leave it in the fridge for 2-3 days, so none is going to be hungry.
The only thing to keep in mind is the number of servings. Use the calculator in the ingredients section, to increase or decrease the size of your ingredients. And this meal is definitely crowd-pleasing that can be easily customized to suit different tastes and preferences.
If you are craving a lighter vegetable-based stew, you can add zucchini, eggplant, cauliflower, or even mushrooms to the pot. I like to use porcini mushrooms, they always give so much earthy flavor.
Chuck roast is a common choice for stews because it’s well-marbled and has a lot of connective tissue that breaks down during the cooking process, making the meat tender and flavorful.
As an alternative, you can look for pre-cut beef stew meat. They are not very expensive usually, because they contain meat from different parts of the cow.
Also, the bottom round is a good option, too. This type of meat is dryer and has less fat than chuck roast. If you want to reduce fat in your stew, you can use the bottom round, just cook slowly and on low flame, so the meat will tenderize.
Cooking this meal is a simple process, but there are a few things to keep in mind:
This recipe will help you can create a delicious and comforting beef carrot potato stew that you absolutely love it!
If you are in the mood for a glass of wine, consider serving red full-body wine, such as a Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, or Syrah. Such wines have a great balance of acidity and flavor and accompany perfectly the rich meat and vegetables.
This stew is very filling and you will probably need a little break after such a dinner. But after, you can enjoy decadent chocolate or fruit desserts.
The best desserts to serve are a double chocolate brownie or an apple pie. You can get acidity from apples if you crave those, or sweetness from chocolate.
