ELEPHANT STEW



Elephant Stew image

The kids should like reading this one...it's an adaptation of a recipe from a July 1968 cookbook that was published by the local newspaper. I bought it at a garage sale and was entertained for hours by the great sounding recipes and the sponsor's ads. A new gas range, $118; a new full size refrigerator with automatic defrosting! $168... Mary Ferris had submitted a version of this recipe.

Categories     Stew

Time 1h45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 lbs boneless top round beef, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup peeled thinly sliced gingerroot (about 2 ounces)
3 dried New Mexico chiles, soaked, seeded and deveined
3 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
1 large shallot, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup water
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 tablespoon mushroom soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup green coconut juice
1/4 cup tamarind juice
fresh cilantro stem, for garnish
cucumber, slices

Steps:

  • Put the beef in a medium bowl. Grind the ginger slices with a mortar and pestle, adding them a few at a time until you have extracted most of the juice, or use a mini-chop to make a wet paste. Squeeze the juice from the fibers (you should have 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons) and stir it into the beef; discard the ginger solids. Let the beef marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the paste: Blend all the ingredients in a blender until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the paste and cook, stirring occasionally, until the flavors are released, about 2 minutes. Stir in the beef, sugar, fish sauce, soy sauce, salt, pepper and broth. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to low and simmer, partially covered, until the liquid is reduced by half, about 40 minutes.
  • Add the coconut and tamarind juices and cook for another 20 minutes. If the sauce is too thin at this point, increase the heat and reduce further; the sauce should be fairly thick.
  • Garnish with cilantro sprigs and serve with cucumber slices and rice.

This is so funny that I had to share it. Just for fun! A resident at the Nursing Home I worked at gave me this recipe. She was a missionary for many years and a sweet lady with a good sense of humor.
