Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a large Dutch oven or oven-safe pot, combine the cubed beef stew meat, chopped onion, carrots, and potatoes. (5 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

In a separate bowl, whisk together the tomato sauce, water, tapioca, and sugar. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. (3 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Pour the tomato sauce mixture over the meat and vegetables in the Dutch oven, ensuring everything is well coated. (2 minutes)

04

Step
5 hrs

Cover the pot tightly with a lid and bake in a preheated oven at 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) for 5 hours, or until the beef is incredibly tender and the vegetables are cooked through. (5 hours)

For an even richer flavor, consider browning the beef stew meat in a skillet before adding it to the Dutch oven.
Feel free to add other vegetables to the stew, such as celery, parsnips, or turnips, to customize it to your liking.
If you prefer a thicker stew, you can add an additional tablespoon of tapioca or a cornstarch slurry (1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons cold water) during the last hour of cooking.
The stew can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors will meld together even more, making it even more delicious.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley or thyme, if desired.
