Beef Stew With Coffee Gravy Recipes

BEEF STEW WITH COFFEE GRAVY

Steps:

• Dredge meat in flour to coat (shaking off any excess flour; excess can be reserved and used as a thickener at the end if desired, but I don't).
• In a Dutch oven, heat the grease over medium heat, and brown the beef (5 minutes).
• Whisk together the soup, soup mix, coffee, wine, water, beef base, horseradish sauce, soy sauce, seasoning salt, oregano, thyme, garlic, and onions; add the mixture to the meat in the pot.
• Simmer, covered, over low heat for 30 minutes.
• Add the carrots, potatoes, and turnips, and simmer, covered, until beef is tender (1-1.5 hours) (Stew can be made ahead up to this point and refrigerated).
• Uncover the stew and bring to a boil.
• Cover and cook over medium heat 10-15 minutes more.
• (I just serve at this point, but if thicker gravy is desired) With a slotted spoon, remove the meat and vegetables to a serving platter.
• Stir a couple of tablespoons of water into the reserved flour, and add to the liquid in the pot.
• Boil, stirring constantly, until thickened (2 minutes).
• Pour gravy over meat and vegetables.

SLOW-COOKER BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Fry the onion and celery in 1 tbsp oil over a low heat until they start to soften - about 5 mins. Add the carrots, bay and thyme, fry for 2 mins, stir in the purée and Worcestershire sauce, add 600ml boiling water, stir and tip everything into a slow cooker. Crumble over the stock cubes or add the stock pots and stir, then season with pepper (don't add salt as the stock may be salty).
• Clean out the frying pan and fry the beef in the remaining oil in batches until it is well browned, then tip each batch into the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8-10 hrs, or on high for 4 hrs.
• If you want to thicken the gravy, mix the cornflour with a splash of cold water to make a paste, then stir in 2 tbsp of the liquid from the slow cooker. Tip back into the slow cooker, stir and cook for a further 30 mins on high. Stir in the parsley and season again to taste. Serve with mash, if you like. Leave to cool before freezing.

COFFEE BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Generously season beef cubes with salt and pepper; set aside.
• In a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add oil and clarified butter. When it gets hot, working in batches, sear the cubes on all sides, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Transfer the cubes to a bowl using a slotted spoon and set aside while working with the remaining cubes.
• After the meat is done, reduce the heat to medium and add onions; sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Sauté them until soft, about 4 minutes scraping the bottom of the pot. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
• Return the cubes to the Dutch oven and season with hot paprika, thyme and rosemary; stir well.
• Using a tablespoon at a time, dust the cubes with flour and stir until well incorporated; cook for 2 minutes stirring continuously.
• Add red wine and scrape the bottom of the pot before adding tomato paste and brown sugar; stir to blend. Add beef broth, coffee, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaf. Stir, increase the heat to medium-high and bring the mixture back to a simmer.
• Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
• Add celery, carrots and potatoes. Combine the veggies into the mixture making sure they're somewhat submerged by pushing them down.
• Increase the heat to medium-high and bring the stew back to a simmer. Cover, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 30 to 40 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
• When time is up, discard the bay leaf, add the cornstarch mixture and stir until the sauce thickens. Before serving, we'll sprinkle on some fresh chopped parsley.
