Hearty Beef Stew

Hearty Beef Stew

For the beef, I like to use sirloin steak but if you want to use stew meat that is just as good but takes a different cooking method;
For the sirloin steak, just dredge the beef in the seasoned flour mix and brown well in a dutch oven in the vegetable oil, then add the brazing liquid and red wine, Worcestershire sauce, kitchen bouquet ;
For the stew meat, do the same as with the sirloin but you will need to cook the beef over low heat, for at least an hour or two before adding the veggies.
Ingredients:
about 2 lbs beef (cubed into bite sized pieces)
2 cups seasoned flour
1/4 cup vegetables oil
1/2 cup red wine
2 tbs worshthire sauce
1 tsp kitchen bouquet
1 tbs beef base
1tbs soup base
2 tbs tomato paste
1 can beef broth
water as needed
(make all the veggies the same size:)
2 cups cubed taters
i cup cubed carrots
1 cup celery
1 cup onion
1 cup mushrooms
1/2 cup green peppers
1/4 cup jalapeño pepper (opcional )
salt and pepper
When the beef is about tender ,add all the rest of the stuff and cook til the veggies are tender.You may have to add some water to adjust the texture.
Enjoy!
