 Beef
with Peas
This
is a lovely seasonal dish and is perfect for cool summer evenings.
Enjoy with a chilled glass of white wine and the leftovers can
be eaten the next day with lots of fresh bread to mop up the sauce.
You
will need:
750g
stewing beef
2 onions
3 cloves garlic
Glass white wine
200g fresh peas or fresh frozen
Sweet paprika
Medium red pepper
Brandy
Salt and pepper
Method
- Cut
the beef into bite sized chunks and place into a large bowl.
Peel and crush the garlic, mix with the beef and leave in the
fridge for about an hour.
- Season
the beef with a little salt and pepper then heat some olive
oil in a casserole dish (an earthenware cazuela is ideal) and
brown the beef.
- Remove
the beef with a slotted spoon and set aside. Use the same oil
to brown the chopped onion. Then add the meat again and add
a teaspoon of sweet paprika, half a glass of white wine and
a dash of brandy.
- Mix
well, lower the heat and cook slowly for an hour or so until
the beef is tender.
- Blanch
the peas in boiling water for a few minutes, drain and refresh.
- Add
the peas and cook for another 5 minutes or so.
- Serve
with thin strips of red pepper and boiled potatoes on
the side.
