Equipment
- Dutch oven
- Sharp knife
- Wooden Spoon
- Cutting Board
- Measuring Spoons
Ingredients
- 2 lbs BEEF CHUCK
- ¼ cup ALL-PURPOSE FLOUR
- 2 tbsp VEGETABLE OIL
- 1 large ONION
- 4 large CARROTS
- 1 lb POTATOES
- 4 cups BEEF BROTH
- 1 tsp DRIED THYME
- 1 tsp SALT
Instructions
- Cut your beef into small one-inch cubes first. Toss the meat in flour and a little salt. Make sure every piece is coated very well.
- Heat the oil in your large Dutch oven now. Add the beef in small batches to the pot. Brown the meat on all sides very quickly.
- Remove the meat and set it aside for now. Add the chopped onions to the same hot pot. Cook them until they look soft and clear.
- Pour in the beef broth and stir it well. Use your spoon to scrape the bottom bits up. This adds a lot of flavor to the sauce.
- Put the browned beef back into the pot now. Add the thyme and bring the liquid to boil. Lower the heat to a very soft simmer.
- Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid today. Let the beef cook for about ninety minutes alone. This makes the meat start to get tender.
- Add the carrots and potatoes to the pot next. Cover it again and cook for forty more minutes. Check if the vegetables are soft with a fork.
Notes
- Brown the meat in small batches for better crust.
- Do not rush the simmering process at all today.
- Cut all your vegetables into the same size pieces.
- Use a heavy pot to prevent burning the bottom.
- Taste the sauce before serving to check the salt.
- Add a splash of water if it gets too thick.
