This time of the year, I look forward to a warm hearty dinner that's not too complicated. Winter stews are perfect for putting together some of your favorite ingredients and cooking them in water, and transforming them into a thick rich savory blend of meat and vegetables.Lately, I've been cooking beef stews, in particular the French Beef Bourguignon. I first tried this dish when I was invited for dinner at my friend's house, in the suburbs of Paris. I was immediately struck by the incredible juiciness and tenderness of the beef. Beef Bourguignon is probably my favorite stew. The beef simmers in an assertive Burgundy for hours resulting in a mildly sweet succulent meat.
While I tend to make beef stews, there are several other kinds of stew to choose from when cooking, including many that are vegetarian. Below are 8 recipes for very different stews:
- Martha Stewart's Indian Stew - It's perfect for thos vegetarians out there!
- Beef Bourguigon
- Kabset Baitenjan - This is an Iraqi-style beef and vegetable stew.
- Braised Lamb Stew
- Baby Root Vegetable Stew with Black Tea Prunes - This is another vegetarian stew.
