Ingredients
- 500 grams beef stew meat
- 1 medium swede (rutabaga), peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
- 4 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the beef stew meat in batches, searing until browned on all sides. Remove meat and set aside.
In the same pot, add the butter. Once melted, add the chopped onion, celery, and carrots, sautéing until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the beef to the pot, then add the diced swede.
Pour in the beef broth and stir in the tomato paste, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let the stew simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked.
Check seasoning and adjust if necessary. Remove bay leaves before serving.
Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
