How to make Beef Stew - Beef Recipe - Говядина тушеная в красном вине

Hi guys, welcome to my channel. Today I'm going to be making a stew. It's a beef and red wine stew. Now we eat a lot of stews in Latvia with potatoes and rice. But this is my own recipe because I like red wine and I like meat. So it kind of goes really really well together. And I hope you enjoy this recipe and try it at home. So I'm making my stew with bacon mashed potatoes. You can just make it with any mashed potatoes you like, I like it a bit cheeky. And also I've marinated my beef steak, so I've cut it into pieces and marinated it in red wine for a whole 24 hours. You can do it if you have time, if you don't have time that's fine, you'll just have to cook the main dish for a bit longer. But it's just so good. So the ingredients we're going to be needing are 4 medium carrots, 2 celery sticks, 3 cloves of garlic, About a tablespoon of tomato puree, one onion, one red pepper, this is my beef, now I've got here enough for about four people, which is about 500 grams, some beef stock, two to three tablespoons of flour, salt and pepper, and then for the mash I've got about, I think, ten potatoes, some bacon and some butter. Okay, so I'm starting to fry my onions first. I've chopped everything up, all my vegetables. Then we add the celery. And I've also put my potatoes on boil. So we just add all the veggies in. A few veggies. Carrots. And a little bit, just to get that flavor out of them. Okay, I've put in a bit of garlic now in there. It smells really, really nice. Now we're just going to add some tomato puree. And mix it in with the vegetables. And I've also got my flour, which I'm going to put in as well. Put that all mixed in. Just add the flour. And mix that in. It's going to stick to your vegetables, but that's okay, because in a second we're going to lower the heat and start pouring our stock. Now I'm just going to add my beef stock, a little bit at a time. We're going to mix that in just to make sure we don't have any lumps in the sauce. Lastly, we're going to add our red wine, which you can see it's got that purple colour. So the meat's going to be very, very juicy. And now just leave it to cook for a good two hours. If you can cook it for longer, do that and yeah, on a low heat. Okay, so my mash is nearly ready, so all we have to do now is quickly fry the bacon to that really crispy, crunchy consistency. So on a fast heat and when it's done, it's out, we're gonna mix that in with mashed potatoes. Okay, my stew is done. You can see what a beautiful color it's reached now. The longer you cook it, the nicer color it gets and the more thicker it gets. So, very colorful. You can see carrots, peppers, onions, everything. So, the little trick I do as well, I put my mashed potatoes into the piping bag like that. And I've done the mash with bacon. And then I'm going to create like a beautiful, beautiful shape. Serve it with it like that. And now stew can just go all around the plate. Sauce. And we do another mash. A little bit of sauce around. It's ready to go. Mmm, the sauce smells so, so good. I'm going to try a little bit of meat with some mash. I've also added a bit of broccoli just to give it colour. But you can use any other green vegetables that you have in the house. It just looks so much more pretty. Wow, that is really good. So much flavour in the meat. Guys, really, really, really yummy dish. Really easy to make. You just have to put all the ingredients in a pot and cook it. So, I really hope you enjoy this recipe. Try it at home. Let me know. Leave the comments below.
