This came from a Mennonite recipe book that I puchased at a harvest fair. I vary it from time to time by adding wine or beer to the simmering pot. This stew really tastes great on cold blustery days.
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 lbs stewing beef
2 cups chopped onions
3 tablespoons flour
2 cups water
1 chopped tomato
5 medium potatoes (cut up)
4 diced carrots
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 diced red pepper
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large pot and brown beef with onions.
2. Sprinkle flour to coat everything and cook 1 minute.
3. Add water and chopped tomato.
4. Cover and simmer for 2 hours.
5. Add potatoes, carrots and spices.
6. Simmer an additional hour.
7. Add peas and red pepper and simmer an additional 15 minutes.
8. Serve with fresh bread.
