Level of Difficulty | Medium |
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean minced beef
- 1 diced onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2 peeled and diced medium potatoes
- 3 1/2 cups beef stock
- 28 ounces diced canned tomatoes (with juice)
- 1 can tomato soup concentrate
- 2 teaspoons worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon italian herbs
- 1 bay leaf
- Salt and pepper for seasoning
- 3 cups mixed veggies (fresh or frozen)
Step 1: Brown the Onion, Ground Beef, and Garlic
Begin by placing a large skillet or pot over medium-high heat.
Add chopped onion, ground beef, and minced garlic to the skillet.
Cook these ingredients, stirring occasionally, until the ground beef is browned and no pink remains.
Once fully cooked, drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Step 2: Add and Simmer Ingredients
To the browned beef and onion mixture, add diced potatoes, beef broth, canned tomatoes, tomato soup, Worcestershire sauce, your chosen seasoning, and bay leaves.
Stir everything together well to combine.
Cover the skillet or pot and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the potatoes to begin cooking.
Step 3: Incorporate the Vegetables and Finish Cooking
After the initial simmering time, stir in your chosen mixed vegetables to the pot.
Continue simmering the mixture, still covered, for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
Check for seasoning and adjust if necessary.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Once the stew has cooked to perfection, remove the bay leaves and give the mixture a final stir.
Serve your hearty and flavorful stew hot, garnished with any additional toppings you prefer.
Enjoy your delicious and comforting meal!
