Инструкции
- Place 2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil, 1 tsp. salt and 1/2 tsp. black pepper
- In a large stainless-steel bowl. Add in stewing beef and toss to coat the exterior of the meat.
- Meanwhile, coat the bottom of a large heavy pot with extra virgin olive oil (about 1 Tbsp.) and place over medium-high heat. Once the oil is warm, add in beef to the pot and allow it to brown on all sides, adding more oil as needed.
- Once all the beef is browned, reserve it and its juices in a bowl.
- Add in diced onion, celery, carrot, green pepper and garlic to the pot; cook, stirring, on high heat for one minute, scraping the bottom of the pot to free flavorful bits. Reduce heat to low and continue to cook vegetables for one minute. Increase heat to high and add in red wine, allowing it to reduce to a glaze in the bottom of the pot.
- Return beef to pot along with the bay leaf and your choice of herbs (thyme, marjoram or possibly rosemary). Add in the beef broth and bring to a brief boil.
- Immediately reduce heat to low and maintain a low simmer till beef is tender, about an hour.
- Prepare squash: While stew is slowly cooking, prepare squash by cutting a shallow slice off the top of each to make a lid; remove the seeds and strings.
- Lightly rub the inside of each squash with salt, pepper and extra virgin olive oil.
- Replace lids and place on a lined baking tray. Bake at 350 till tender when pricked with a knife, about 30 to 45 min. Remove from oven; set aside.
- Before serving stew: Add in baby new potatoes, pearl onions and sugar snap peas; gently reheat, if necessary. Adjust seasoning, adding salt and pepper to taste, if needed. Carefully ladle stew into each squash and serve.
