Instructions: |
1. Heat olive oil in a heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef and saute until brown on
all sides, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute. Add beef stock, Guinness, red wine,
tomato paste, sugar, thyme, Worcestershire sauce and bay leaves. Stir to combine. Bring mixture
to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, then cover and simmer 1 hour, stirring occasionally.
2. While the meat and stock is simmering, melt butter in another large pot over medium heat.
Add potatoes, onion, and carrots. Saute vegetables until golden, about 20 minutes.
3. Add vegetables to beef stew. Simmer uncovered until vegetable and beef are very tender,
about 40 minutes. Discard bay leaves. Tilt pan and spoon off fat. (Can be prepared up to 2 days ahead.
Salt and pepper to taste. Cool slightly. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, then cover and refrigerate.
Bring to simmer before serving.) Transfer stew to serving bowl. Sprinkle with parsley and serve |
