1 Answer

Answer :

Dredge the meat in a little bit of flour and then brown it in a Dutch oven on top of the stove in a little bit of hot oil. Add some beef broth or water to it and the spices and cook in the oven with the potatoes, cut up onions and carrot. Tightly cover the pot and let it cook a few hours. You’ll want to check on it from time to time to see if you need to add more liquid. When the meat and vegetables are tender, taste and if you need to adjust the seaoning. (A bay leave is nice to ahve in the pot or a bouquet garni.) You could add some red **** toward the end of the cooking and also the cherry tomatoes about 15 minutes before the end.
