Beef Stew With Caramelized Onions And Red Wine Recipes

BEEF AND RED WINE STEW

Steps:

• Dust the beef in the seasoned flour then shake off the excess.
• Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan. Brown the beef all over in batches and scoop out onto a plate (add a little more oil if needed).
• Cook the onions and garlic with a little more olive oil in a large lidded casserole for 10-15 minutes or until the onions have softened and are translucent. Stir in the tomato purée, rosemary and thyme, and cook for 1 minute. Add the red wine, bring to a simmer, then add the beef. Pour in the stock and stir.
• Cover and simmer on a low heat (or put in a 150C/fan 130C/gas 2 oven) for 2-3 hours or until the beef is meltingly tender, checking after 2 hours. Season, then stir through the parsley, extra rosemary and thyme, and serve with mash.

RED WINE-MARINATED BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Marinate the beef in red wine in a 9x13-inch glass baking dish in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours, turning the meat over halfway through marinating time.
• Remove beef from the wine and pat dry with paper towels. Reserve the wine.
• Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season beef on all sides with salt and pepper. Brown in the hot oil, about 2 minutes on each side. Remove meat, drain the pot, and add bacon. Cook until semi-crisp and browned, about 5 minutes. Drain bacon grease but do not wipe the pot clean.
• Drizzle remaining oil into the pot and add potatoes, carrots, green beans, celery, and garlic. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. Pour reserved wine, beef broth, and tomatoes into the pot, scraping up the browned bits that cling to the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add rosemary and sage. Return the meat to the pot and bring the liquid to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and let simmer until meat is very tender and no longer pink, 3 to 3 1/2 hours, adding mushrooms during the last 1 hour of cooking time.
• Combine tapioca and cold water in a bowl. Mix into the stew to thicken as desired.

BEEF IN RED WINE WITH MELTING ONIONS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. In a large, heavy-based flameproof casserole dish with a lid, melt the butter over a medium heat. Add the onions and garlic, cook for 10 mins until starting to brown, then transfer to a small plate.
• Put the flour in a large plastic food bag with plenty of black pepper. Add half the beef, shake to coat, then remove, leaving some flour in the bag. Add the rest of the beef and shake to coat in the remaining flour.
• Heat the oil in the same casserole dish you cooked the onions in (there's no need to clean it first). Add the beef and bay leaves, and fry until the meat is browned all over. Pour in the wine and return the onions to the dish. Add the tomato purée and stock, stir and return to a simmer. Cover with the lid and put in the oven to stew for 1 hr.
• After 1 hr, add the mushrooms and return to the oven for another hour. Taste the meat - if it's tender, remove from the oven. If it's still a little firm, cook for 30 mins more and test again. Serve scattered with parsley, if you like.

RED WINE BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper, place in a large bowl, and toss with the flour.
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or wide-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Cook the meat, in batches, until well browned on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes, transferring the pieces to a plate as they are browned. Pour off and discard any drippings from the pot.
• Add the tomato paste, wine, broth, onion, bay leaves, thyme, and 2 of the carrots and bring to a boil. Return the meat and any juices back to the pot (the meat should be barely submerged in liquid), cover, and transfer to the oven. Cook for 2 hours.
• Using tongs, remove and discard the cooked vegetables. Add the potatoes and the remaining 8 carrots to the pot, cover, and return to the oven. Cook until the meat and vegetables are fork-tender, about 1 hour more.

• Cut the meat into 2-inch pieces, rinse, and pat dry with paper towels.
• Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Coat the bottom of a 5- to 7-quart Dutch oven with a thin film of the oil and set pot over med-high heat.
• When oil shimmers, add enough meat to cover bottom in 1 layer.
• Cook, without stirring, until meat lifts easily from pot with tongs and is well browned on bottom, about 5 minutes.
• Turn and brown on the other side, about 5 minutes more.
• Transfer meat to a plate and continue with remaining meat, adding more oil to pot on between batches as needed.
• When last batch of meat has been removed, add the butter to the pot, then the onions and a good pinch of salt, and cook, stirring often, until onions are softened, about 3 minutes.
• Decrease heat to low and sprinkle the sugar over the onions.
• Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are limp and golden, about 15 minutes.
• Stir in the flour and thyme and increase heat to high.

BEEF STEW WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND AMBER LAGER

Steps:

• In a large, heavy pot, warm the oil over high heat until hot but not smoking. Working in batches, brown the meat well on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes. Adjust the heat as necessary to keep the meat from scorching. Transfer the browned meat to a plate and repeat until all the meat is browned.
• Add the onions and butter to the pot and stir over high heat until the onions start to soften, about 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and sprinkle in the sugar. Continue to cook the onions, stirring occasionally, until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the flour, thyme and carrots and raise the heat to high. Stir for 1 minute, then pour in the lager or ale, letting it come to a vigorous boil. Stir in the broth and tomato paste and return to a boil.
• Return the meat and any accumulated juices on the plate to the pot, let the liquid come just to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the meat is tender when pierced and the sauce is slightly thickened, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve on warmed individual plates.

HEARTY BEEF STEW WITH RED ONIONS AND ALE

Steps:

• Season the beef all over with salt and pepper. Set aside while you prepare the onions.
• Peel the onions. Cut 2 of them in half root to stem, then thinly slice them crosswise into half-moons. Cut the third onion, root to stem, into 1/2-inch wedges.
• Dust the beef cubes lightly with flour. Heat butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a large Dutch oven or other pot over medium-high. Add beef, in batches taking care not to crowd the pan, and sear until it's good and dark all over, 5 to 6 minutes per batch. Transfer beef cubes to a bowl as they brown. Add more oil and adjust heat if necessary to prevent burning.
• Stir in sliced onions and raise heat to medium-high if you lowered it. Cook until pale golden brown and soft, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant and lightly golden at the edges, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Make a well in the center of the onions, then stir in tomato paste, coriander and allspice; cook, stirring until paste is darkened, 1 minute. Stir in stock, ale, 1 cup water and rosemary sprig. Return beef and any juices to the pot and bring to a simmer. Partly cover the pot and simmer gently for 45 minutes.
• Give the beef a stir, then add onion wedges. Simmer for 15 minutes, then stir in carrots and continue to simmer until the meat, onions and carrots are tender, 30 to 45 minutes longer.
• If the sauce seems thin, use a slotted spoon to transfer meat and vegetables to a platter; cover with foil to keep warm. Discard the rosemary. Return pot with liquid to stove and simmer until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in vinegar. Taste and add more salt and vinegar if you like. Spoon sauce over meat and garnish with chives, flaky sea salt and more black pepper.

BEEF STEW WITH RED WINE AND HOISIN SAUCE

Steps:

• Place the meat on paper towels and pat it dry. Sprinkle it generously with salt and pepper and set it aside.
• Place a heavy, large pot (or Dutch oven) over medium-high heat on your stovetop. When it gets hot, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and then add the meat. Sauté the meat until brown on all sides, about 10 minutes (depending on the size of your pot and the amount of meat, this step should be done in batches so as to ensure that all the meat gets browned evenly-do not crowd the pot). Remove the meat from the pot and reserve. Reduce the heat to medium; add 2 more tablespoons olive oil to pot. Add the onions and sauté them until they are golden brown, about 10-15 minutes.
• Return the meat to the pot and mix it into onions. Add 1 cup of wine, the tomatoes with their juices, the hoisin sauce, and the bay leaves. Bring the stew to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer the stew for an hour, stirring occasionally.
• Add the carrots and the remaining 1cup of wine. Cover again and simmer the stew for another 30 minutes or so, stirring occasionally. Uncover to pot and continue cooking until the sauce is slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes longer.
• Reduce the heat to medium, add the cornstarch mixture, and simmer until the sauce thickens, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Discard bay leaves. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Transfer the stew to a large serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.
