Steps:
- To prepare this delicious Greek beef stifado recipe, heat the oil in a saucepan, add the meat (in batches) and sauté, until browned on all sides. Do not add all the meat in the sauce pan, rather sauté in batches, so that the temperature of the oil remains high and the meat is sealed. When done, remove with a slotted spoon, place on a platter, cover and set aside.
- Peel and carve the baby shallot onions crosswise, add in the same oil used to browned the meat, turn down to medium heat and sauté until the onions have softened, but not browned (about 10 minutes).
- Pour in the cognac, the wine and red wine vinegar, cover and let it simmer for 3 minutes.
- Pour the meat along with its juices to the saucepan, add the tomato paste and sauté. Add the chopped tomatoes, bay leaf, allspice berries, nutmeg and a bit of water until the meat is covered. Bring to a boil, turn the heat down and simmer the beef stifado with a lid on for 1 1/2 hours or until the beef is tender and the sauce has thickened. While the beef stifado is simmering, check if it needs some water; you don't want it to dry out. If it does, pour in half a cup of boiled water and stir. Towards the end of cooking time season well with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve beef stifado with pasta and grated cheese, or boiled new potatoes. Enjoy!

STIFATHO: GREEK BEEF & ONION STEW
This recipe is inspired by a family favorite Greek restaurant in Greenville, SC, "Never on Sunday." The older couple who own the restaurant prepare some of the best, most-authentic Greek recipes I've ever had. I've enjoyed this particular dish since I was a child. Although my version probably isn't as good as Iris' recipe, it tides me over when I can't make a visit the restaurant. This works better on top of the range as opposed to the crock pot.

BEEF STIFADO IN THE SLOW COOKER
Stifado is a Greek beef stew and my all-time favorite Greek dish. Chunks of tender beef are cooked with shallots in a rich aromatic tomato sauce. Serve with boiled rice and a good supply of crusty bread to mop up the rich sauce!

STEFATHO (GREEK BEEF STEW)
This is my absolute favorite soup or stew ever! I got this recipe from my aunt and it is very simple. It is also very flexible, so some of the ingredients are often altered by preference and don't have a precise measurement. Some even add small potatoes to it. It is delicious with crispy bread dipped into it. *Note that seasoning measurements will most likely be changed to your preference- taste as you go!*
