Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs beef chuck, cut into cubes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cups beef stock
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 cups apple vinegar
  • 2 cups mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup pearl onions, peeled
  • 2 tbsp flour

Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add beef cubes in batches and brown them on all sides for about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  2. Sauté Vegetables: In the same pot, add onion, garlic, and carrots; sauté until softened (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Deglaze: Pour in apple vinegar and scrape the bottom of the pot to release browned bits. Simmer briefly before returning the beef to the pot along with beef stock and tomato paste.
  4. Add Mushrooms and Pearl Onions: Stir in mushrooms and pearl onions. Cover and reduce heat to low; simmer gently for about 1.5 to 2 hours or until beef is tender.
  5. Thicken Sauce: Mix flour with a few tablespoons of stew liquid to create a slurry; stir into the stew during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
