Instructions
Beef Stew
- Melt the butter in a cast-iron pot over high heat. Add the beef and fry until browned on all sides.
- Add the carrots, onions, beef stock, bay leaves, peppercorns, and ground cloves. Fry for a few minutes, and then stir in the heavy cream, water, and then cover.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 60-90 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Stir occasionally.
- Right before serving, add the cream cheese to thicken the stew base, and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste
Broccoli
- Fill half of a large pot with water. Over high heat, bring the water to a boil, and add the broccoli. Boil for a couple of minutes, and then strain the broccoli in a colander. In a large serving bowl, toss the broccoli with butter, and season with salt and pepper.
- Serve the beef stew with a touch of parsley, and broccoli on the side. Enjoy!
