| It's Stew Time During the cold winter months we eat a lot of stew. Generally this means Beef Stew with carrots and potatoes. I would love to get some new "Stew" recipes. I started a thread for Brunswick stew recipes and promptly found exactly what I was looking for and I'm going to post the recipe in that thread. PLEASE POST YOUR FAVORITE STEW RECIPE BELOW! Green Chili Stew Ingredients 2 lbs. lean beef round 2 T oil 3 medium potatoes, diced (1/2"-3/4") 1/2 cup chopped onions 2 garlic cloves, minced 6 green Anaheim or Hatch green chilis, not jalapenos (I generally use canned chilis since I can't get Hatch chilis -- the absolute best) 2 t salt Black pepper to taste Hot sauce to taste - optional for those who can take the heat Instructions PREPARE fresh chili, roast, peel, remove all seeds and chop. If fresh chili is not available, use 1 can (4.5 oz. to 8oz.) green chili peppers (more or less to your taste) CUBE meat, sprinkle with salt and brown in the oil. ADD potatoes, onion, garlic, chili, oregano and enough water to cover. It should have a soupy consistency. SIMMER until potatoes are done (30-45 minutes), adding water if necessary. Tip #1: You can adjust this recipe by increasing or decreasing the amount of green chili (chile)peppers and/or garlic to your taste. New Mexicans do like it hot! Tip #2: You can brown the meat, then put everything in a crock pot to cook all day. Tip #3: Some people use ground beef to cut costs and add a small can of whole kernel corn, but it is much more traditional to use beef round. |

| I really like chinese beef stew but I've never made it, only ordered it at restaurants. It's basically the same, beef chunks with carrots but instead of potatoes they use wintermelon, and serve it over white rice. The beef chunks usually have nice big hunks of super soft tendon on it. there's also vietnamese beef stew, it's similar to the chinese one, but spicy and no wintermelon, and you can either eat it with a crusty baguette or egg noodles. This is topped off with lots of onion and cilantro. This version is more of a soup, not a thick thick stew consistency, but it's called a stew bc the meat is cooked for so long.

| As a Liverpool boy this is one of my most favourite dishes. SCOUSE STEW (in Liverpool it is called "scouse" we do not use the word "Stew") My mother would often say Scouse for dinner mister be home on time ! INGREDIENTS Serves 4-6 people Half a Pound of Stewing Steak Half a Pound of Lambs Breast A Large Onion 1lb of Carrots 5lb of Potatoes 2 Oxo Cubes 2 Teaspoons of Vegatable Oil Worcester Sauce Salt and Pepper Water HOW TO COOK Takes 4 hours of slow cooking Cut the meat into large cubes and fry in the vegetable oil until lightly browned all over. You may wish to add some Worcester Sauce at this point for added flavor. Transfer the meat to a large saucepan and add the onion that should have been chopped into large chunks. Follow this by chopping the carrot into medallions and place this on the meat. Peel and then Finely dice 1lb of the potatoes and place on top of the carrots. Fill the pan with cold water until it is half full. Break up the Oxo cubes and sprinkle into the water. Add salt and pepper for seasoning. Let the pan simmer gently, stirring occasionally. The large pieces of onion will start to break up and the potato will become soft and will make the final sauce thick. Simmer for a total of two hours, then add the remaining potatoes that should have been peeled and roughly chopped, along with a few splashes of Worcester Sauce. Then simmer for another two hours. Serve piping hot with red cabbage, beetroot, pickled onions and crusty bread. You may add Ketchup and HP for flavoring. HISTORY Scouse was brought to Liverpool by Northern European sailors, it was originally called Labskause. This was finally shortened to Skause and over time the spelling changed to the more Anglicized version we have today, Scouse. The people who ate Scouse were all generally sailors and their families and eventually all sailors within Liverpool were referred to as Scousers. Time has now taken its turn and everyone from the region of Liverpool is known as a Scouser. Scouse holds a place in the heart of most Liverpudlian's as the taste of their hometown and is still regularly eaten today by a great number of families, including my own. There are records showing that it was also served to the inmates of the Birkenhead workhouses way back in 1864. The recipe was much simpler then than today's refined version but was predominantly the same staple ingredients - meat, vegetables and potatoes. Scouse can be ready made and kept for up to 2 days. Keep it covered in a refrigerator and reheat in a saucepan. Most people prefer the added depth of flavour that reheating adds. Blind scouse was a variation on the above recipe and was eaten by the poorer people as it was cheaper to make because it did not contain meat.

| Bread and Jam Fritters Mix together ¼ lb. of flour and a pinch of salt, make a hole in the middle and break in an egg. Mix smoothly, add gradually ¼ pint of milk. Beat this batter well and let stand. Cut about 4 diamond-shaped slices of bread and make them into jam sandwiches. Dip each in the batter and drop them into the boiling fat; fry until brown, then drain them well on kitchen paper. Sprinkle with sugar and they are ready to serve.

| Vegetarian Lentil Stew My friend made this a few years ago. It was sooo delicious I ate 3 bowls during the course of the night! Unfortunately that is how I found out I'm allergic to lentils!!! Vegetarian Lentil Stew Recipe at Epicurious.com

| I look for cuts of meat on sale and cube them up myself for stew- anything with a little fat on it. I also look for cheapo bottles of red and white wine to use for cooking, not drinking. Also been adding a few dashes of balsamic vinegar to my stews lately and getting rave reviews. Here's a recipe for crockpot "Chocroute", a great way to use those buy one-get one kielbassa my local grocery stores are always having: 1 package fresh sauerkraut from the deli case (or canned) 2 kielbassa sliced thick 1 onion, diced 2 cloves garlic, minced 4 thin skinned potatoes, large dice 1 can white beans, drained 1 tablespoon caraway seeds cracked pepper to taste 1/2 to 1 cup white wine Diced ham or spicy sausage (optional) Dump everything into the crockpot and let it go until potatoes are cooked.
