Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a Ziploc bag, add the roast cubes and flour. Seal bag and toss until meat is fully coated.
  • Heat butter and oil in a large nonstick pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add the floured meat and cook until lightly browned.
  • Add onion, garlic, caraway seeds and cook until onion is partially softened and garlic plus caraway seeds are fragrant.
  • Add paprika, salt, pepper, tomato paste, red wine vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar (optional) and mix until combined.
  • Add potatoes, carrots, broth, bay leaf and mix until combined.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Then, reduce heat to medium-low so that stew can cook on a simmer.
  • Cover and cook for 1.5-2 hours or until meat is tender.
  • Discard bay leaf.
  • For a thick stew, remove lid and cook uncovered on medium heat until excess liquid is evaporated.
  • For thinner stew, mix in more broth. Enjoy!
