Directions:
- Cook bacon or salt pork in a tablespoon of oil in a large heavy fry pan over low heat until lightly browned.
- Remove and set aside.
- Dry the beef with paper toweling, then add as many pieces as you can without crowding to the fry pan.
- Brown nicely all over.
- Transfer the meat to a heavy 4-5 quart Dutch Oven with lid.
- Add the carrots, celery and onion to the fry pan and cook until starting to brown a little.
- Transfer vegetables to Dutch Oven.
- Pour a cup or so of wine or beef broth into the frying pan and bring to a boil, scraping up all the lovely browned bits in pan.
- Pour this over the beef and vegetables.
- Now, put the Dutch Oven over low heat and add the rest of the wine and beef broth.
- Add the browned bacon bits or salt pork, if you are using them.
- Add the tomato paste, bay leaves, thyme and chopped garlic cloves.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer.
- Taste and season with salt & pepper, be cautious, you can add more later.
- Cover and cook slowly, either in a preheated 325 degree oven, or on top of the stove.
- Simmer for 2-4 hours, until the meat is very tender.
- An hour before the end of cooking, add the potatoes if you want to use them, and add the peas and mushrooms 30 minutes before the end of cooking.
- Finish off the stew by skimming any fat that remains on the surface, and boiling down the liquid to reduce it, if it seems too thin.
- Serve with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.
- Garnish with fresh parsley.
- NOTE: Cheaper cuts of meat, like shank or shin beef, will take the longest to cook; chuck or round the shortest.
