agreed
japanese curry is also simple and delicious

>>936874225
Yes anon, I have made that before too.
I prefer making a more classic stew.

>>936868635 (OP)
How do you make yours OP?

>>936874225
Wait Japanese curry is a thing?
You just opened a whole new dimension of cooking to me that isn't Indian poo.

Beef, carrots, celery, onions Leffe Bruin beer.
best stew ever

>>936874705
I don't have a recipe for stew, I just go by whatever I have too much of and feels right in the moment.
Nine times out of ten it turns out great.
Overthinking is dangerous when making stew.

This is my stew.

>>936874705
Cont:
If you are wondering though, most of them are basic beef stews with potatoes and carrots.
Simple but good and no way to go too badly wrong when changing things up for taste.

>>936874893
Looks very good anon.

>>936874978
Thank you. It tastes good.

>braise meat in butter and garlic
>add all the veg you have in the fridge
>fill just to the top with beef broth

Works every time.

>>936875117
A classic stew recipe.
Hope you make more stew.
Stew is very good.

>>936874751
Japanese curry.

>>936868635 (OP)
Stew... in 80-90 degree weather in the middle of July... anon, I-

>>936875630
Stew is good in any weather.
Just make sure you have a good fridge.

>>936875562
sepoopoo

I also make ribs/pasta sauce in a similar fashion.

>saute veg in the pan
>add cut up pork ribs
>fill to the top with canned tomatoes
>stew for at least 3 hours

It's really good and cheap. You can get a whole rack of ribs for like $13 and it feeds you for a week.

>>936868635 (OP)
I like to mix Peruvian and Chinese spices to create Mexico’s finest fish paste, can be crafted into a soupy texture and eaten with wontons or tortilla chips

>>936876854
That sounds great anon.
I will try that stew after my next grocery trip.

>>936876943
That sounds like a great stew anon.
The way you describe it sounds more like a dip but it will be a good stew.

>>936876331
It's just a hearty, warming meal that is also typically cooked for quite awhile (generating heat the entire time), and so for those reasons it's not high on my list of summer meals. I enjoy a good stew, but it's a fall/winter sort of meal for me.

>>936877459
Good point anon.
Enjoy your stew.

>>936877533
I am having cheesy brats and redskin potato salad, my friend.

>>936877602
What's a brat?

>>936877653
Shortening of bratwurst, a type of sausage.

>>936877459
This. In winter I often make a peppered venison stew.

>>936877602
That also sounds good.
Good luck with your future stews.

>>936878042
That sounds like a very good stew anon.

>>936878042
Where do you get the venison from?

>>936878267
It’s quite rich, with half a bottle of red wine, some redcurrant jelly, tomato puree, browned chunks of venison and various root vegetables

>>936878481
Local butcher gets half haunches from local deer control/stalker and butchers it. I buy a few packs and freeze them - I have at least one stew’s worth in the freezer ready for autumn

>>936878574
What types of root vegetables?
I might try to make that stew after my next grocery trip.

>>936878481
>>936878682
(cont)
But I can also get some from my local farm shop, or from Waitrose

>>936878717
ever try switching out the wine for beer? Theakstons old peculier is so good in a stew

>>936878706
Carrots, potatoes, parsnips, turnips, mushrooms, onions, shallots.
Brown the meat and set aside.
Finely chop the onions, add the shallots (whole) and saute until soft.
Add tomato puree and fry together.
Add the red wine and a little red wine vinegar and bubble gently to boil off the alcohol for 10 mins
Add the meat back, plus the vegetables, 3 cloves, 2 bay leaves, some coarse ground pepper, tablespoon of redcurrant jelly, few sprigs of thyme
Top up the casserole with beef stock
Cook on 180 (fan) for about 2 hours
Serve with crusty bread to mop up the unctuous sauce

>>936878814
No, never tried that.

>>936879195
That sounds like a delicious stew.
I will have to make that once I get the ingredients.

>>936879297
It is a favourite of ours. You can use whatever vegetables you like, but in my opinion the carrots and parsnips are essential. I can’t always get turnips, I'm not keen on celeriac but some swear by it, I tried Jerusalem Artichoke but wasn’t that impressed

>>936879580
Thanks for the advice anon.
Enjoy your future stews.
