Number Of Ingredients 13

2 1/2 pounds beef stew meat, cut into 2-inch pieces
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 onions, chopped
1 cup celery, chopped
1/4 cup red wine
4 cups beef stock

Add the beef and cook, stirring as needed, until browned on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Discard any excess oil from the pan and return to medium-high heat. Add the onions and celery and cook until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the wine and stir, scraping the bottom and sides with a wooden spoon. Stir in the stock, thyme, rosemary and marjoram. Return the meat and any juices that have collected to the pot. Add the potatoes and carrots, then cover and bake for 3 hours. Stir in the peas and bake for 1 hour. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
