Treat your ingredients with care...
- Beef stew meat — For a more tender result, choose a cut of beef that is suitable for slow cooking, such as chuck or round roast. Trim any excess fat before cubing the meat.
Tips & Tricks
- For added depth of flavor, you can sear the beef cubes in batches before proceeding with the recipe.
- If you prefer a thicker stew, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water and add it to the stew during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
