Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 500 gram Grass-fed beef cubed into 3cm pieces
  • 3 tbsp Gluten-free flour like Quinoa flour
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Ground paprika
  • 1 tsp Turmeric
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil or ghee
  • 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
  • 1 large Onion cut in wedges
  • 4 Garlic cloves crushed
  • 2 tbsp Tomato paste
  • 5 cups Bone broth or stock
  • 1 Bay leaf
  • 4 large Carrots cut into 3cm pieces
  • 500 gram Sweet potatoes washed and cubed into 3cm pieces
  • 4 Celery stalks cut into 3cm pieces
  • 1 Red Capsicum cut into 3cm pieces
  • 2 cups Leafy greens
  • 5 sprigs Parsley

Instructions

  1. Combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika, and turmeric in a medium-size bowl
  2. Add meat to the flour mixture and make sure it’s evenly coated (leftover flour mix can be used to thicken your stew to the right consistency at the end)
  3. Heat olive oil or ghee in a large pot
  4. Brown the meat
  5. Add the Apple Cider Vinegar to help remove the brown bits from the bottom of the pot
  6. Add onion and garlic and cook until softened
  7. Add tomato paste, bone broth or stock and bay leaf
  8. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low heat for 2 hours
  9. Add potatoes, carrots, and celery and continue simmer on low heat for 30 minutes
  10. Add capsicum and continue simmer on low heat for 15 minutes
  11. Add leafy greens and continue simmer until wilted
  12. If the stew doesn’t have the preferred consistency, add some more of the flour mix to thicken it up (little bits at a time) and stir through the beef stew.
  13. Remove bay leaf, sprinkle with parsley and serve hot. Add more seasoning to taste.
