BEEF & MUSHROOM BRAISED STEW



Beef & Mushroom Braised Stew image

Every spring, my family heads out to our timber acreage to collect morel mushrooms, and then we cook up this stew. We use morels, of course, but baby portobellos or button mushrooms or will work, too. -Amy Wertheim, Atlanta, Illinois

Time 1h40m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 18

16 ounces button mushrooms, chopped
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, chopped
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, chopped
8 ounces oyster mushrooms, chopped
2 cups roughly chopped onion
6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided, or to taste
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 large leek, white and light green parts only, diced
2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, crushed and minced
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups dry red wine
1 ½ cups vegetable broth
1 tablespoon tamari, or to taste
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste
3 sprigs fresh thyme, chopped
2 leaf (blank)s bay leaves, or more to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all four mushroom types in a large bowl with onions; toss gently to mix.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a very large pot over medium-high heat. Cover the bottom of the pot with one layer of the mushroom-onion mixture. Cook, without moving them around too much, until they begin to brown and caramelize on one side, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir and cook another 3 to 5 minutes to brown the other side. Transfer to a large bowl using a slotted spoon. Add 2 tablespoons oil to the pot, and repeat with another batch. Continue until all mushrooms and onions are cooked.
  • Season mushroom-onion mixture with salt and pepper.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and 1 tablespoon oil to the pot. Add leek and carrots and saute until leeks turn a light golden color and start to soften, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in tomato paste; cook for 1 minute. Add flour; cook and stir for 1 more minute.
  • Add wine, vegetable broth, tamari, cayenne, thyme, and bay leaves, and scrape up the brown bits at the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon. Carefully add the mushroom-onion mixture. Bring to a simmer.
  • Reduce heat to low and simmer, partly covered, until carrots and onions are tender and sauce has thickened, 30 to 40 minutes.
