Despite the name this stew has no pumpkin. It is traditionally served on Halloween and for the harvest festival. I found this on . This is a German recipe. Ingredients:
3 tablespoons canola oil, divided |
1 garlic clove, minced |
2 onions, chopped |
2 1/2 lbs beef stew meat, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 teaspoons pepper |
2 tablespoons caraway seeds |
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour |
7 cups beef broth |
2 bay leaves |
1 tablespoon white sugar |
1 teaspoon nutmeg |
3 large potatoes, peeled and cubed |
3 large carrots, peeled and chopped |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1/4 cup water |
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 tablespoon canola oil in a Dutch oven over medium- high heat. Stir in garlic and onion, and cook until softened and translucent; remove from pan. Pour 2 tablespoons canola oil into Dutch oven. While this heats, mix the beef with salt and pepper. Sear the beef in batches until browned all over, about 5 minutes.
2. Stir in caraway seeds and flour, cook until flour is incorporated and the caraway seed is fragrant, about 1 minute.
3. Pour in beef broth; add bay leaves, sugar, nutmeg, and onion mixture. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the meat is tender, about 2 hours.
4. Stir in the potatoes and carrots; continue cooking until the vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes.
5. Stir together the cornstarch and water; stir into the stew along with the parsley. Simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
