Beef Stew is always great to have in the winter. If you love stews, this is the one to TRY! Delicious as a clear broth soup, or thicken to make a gravy... BOTH are AWESOME! Make along with Grammie Bea's Herbed Dumplings, and you will be coming back for more!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs stew meat
6 -8 potatoes, peeled, and quartered
2 large onions, halved, and then sliced
4 stalks celery, diced
6 carrots, sliced thin
salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
1. Brown stew beef in a small amount of oil.
2. Put meat and onions in a pot covered with water. Add salt and pepper to taste, and cook for 2 hrs, adding more water, if needed, as meat cooks.
3. After cooking for 2 hrs., add the vegetables, and cook another 1/2 hours.
4. Serve, or if you like the gravy thick follow directions below.
5. You may thicken the juice by adding 2 T. of corn starch to 1/2 cup cold water and mix, then pour into pan.
6. Stir, and let cook for a few minutes to thicken to desired consistency.
7. Serve.
