Here is another childhood memory from growing up in a Swedish-American household. This should be served with boiled red potatoes, pickled beets, and lingonberries. Ingredients:
2 lbs beef chuck, cut into cubes |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 1/2 tablespoons butter |
3 medium yellow onions, sliced |
10 -15 whole allspice |
2 bay leaves |
2 cups water |
Directions:
1. Combine flour, salt and pepper in a bowl.
2. Toss beef cubes in the flour mixture to coat.
3. In a large dutch oven, cook the butter until just starting to brown.
4. Add the meat and onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is browned on all sides.
5. Add the bay leaves and allspice.
6. Boil the water in a separate pan, then pour over the meat.
7. Simmer, covered, for 1 1/2 hours, or until the meat is tender. Check the water level occasionally, and add more if needed.
8. When meat is tender, remove to a serving dish.
