Daube de Boeuf
Daube de Boeuf is a traditional French beef stew that is slow-cooked to perfection. It typically consists of beef braised in red wine, along with a medley of vegetables, herbs, and spices. The long, slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in a rich and hearty dish.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef stew meat cut into chunks
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 onions chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 2 carrots sliced
- 2 celery stalks sliced
- 1 cup red wine (such as Burgundy or Cabernet Sauvignon)
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- fresh parsley chopped for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the beef stew meat and brown it on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set it aside.
- In the same pot, add the onions and garlic. Sauté until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
- Add the carrots and celery, and cook for a few minutes until they start to soften.
- Return the beef to the pot and pour in the red wine and beef broth. Stir in the tomato paste, bay leaves, dried thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover the pot and let it simmer gently for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and the flavors have melded together. You can also cook it in a slow cooker on low heat for 6-8 hours.
- Once cooked, remove the bay leaves and taste for seasoning. Adjust with salt and pepper if necessary.
- Serve the Daube de Boeuf hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired. It pairs well with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
