Directions: |
Directions:Heat oven to 250 degrees.
Place beef cubes in large bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper; toss to coat. Heat 2 Tbs. oil over medium-high heat in large ovenproof Dutch oven. Add half of meat and brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove meat and set aside on plate. Repeat process with remaining oil and meat.
Add onions to empty Dutch oven and sauté until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Add garlic and continue to cook for 30 seconds. Stir in flour and cook until lightly colored, 1 to 2 minutes. Add wine, scraping up any browned bits that may have stuck to pot. Add stock, bay leaves and thyme, and bring to a simmer. Add meat and return to a simmer. Cover and place pot in oven. Cook for 1 hour.
Remove pot from oven and add potatoes and carrots. Cover and return to oven. Cook just until meat is tender and potatoes and carrots are done – 1 ½ to 2 hours.
Remove pot from oven. Add peas and cover, and allow to stand for 5 minutes. Discard bay leaves, adjust seasonings and stir in parsley. |
