Steps:
- In a small bowl, mix the flour, cayenne, and the salt and pepper until evenly combined. Pat the meat dry, then sprinkle with the flour mixture and toss to coat.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a 4-quart Dutch oven (or oven-ready saucepan) over medium-high heat. When the oil shimmers, add half of the meat and sear until brown on all sides, about 5 to 6 minutes. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining meat.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of the oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onions, carrots, and celery. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are brown, about 5 minutes.
- Heat oven to 325 degrees F and arrange a rack in the middle.
- Add the garlic, tomato paste, thyme, and bay leaf and stir to coat. Stir in the wine and scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom. Add the potatoes and stir to coat.
- Add the meat and any accumulated juices, and the beef broth. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover the stew with a lid and transfer to oven. Cook until the beef is knife tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
- When beef is almost ready, make the biscuits. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, thyme, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined. Stir in the cream until a loose dough forms. Lightly flour a clean work surface, turn the dough out onto the surface, and knead briefly until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pat into a 1-inch thick circle and cut into 8 wedges.
- Increase the oven to 400 degrees F. Remove the stew from the oven. Uncover the stew, and stir in the parsley. Top the stew with the biscuits and brush with a little cream. Return the pot to the oven bake until the tops are crispy and golden brown, about 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve immediately.
BISCUIT-TOPPED BEEF STEW
Steps:
- Special equipment: four 10-ounce ramekins For the beef stew: In a heavy saucepan, fry the bacon until crisp. Remove the bacon and reserve. Brown the beef slowly on all sides in the bacon fat and remove. Add the carrots and celery and cook for about 5 minutes. Add the reserved bacon and beef back into the pan. Sprinkle with the flour and some salt and pepper and toss to coat evenly. Add the wine and let it reduce by half, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the beef stock, thyme and garlic. Cover and cook over low heat for 1 hour. Add the onions to the stew and cook for an additional 15 minutes. Add the mushrooms and parsley, season with more salt and pepper and cook an additional 15 minutes. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. For the biscuits: In a bowl and using your fingers, mix together the flour and coconut oil very well until the mixture feels crumbly. Add the milk and mix (but don't overmix). Knead the dough just a couple of times, then roll it out to a thickness of 1/2 inch on a floured surface. Cut into 3-inch rounds. Ladle the stew into four 10-ounce ramekins, filling them three-quarters full. Top each with a biscuit round and brush the biscuits with melted butter. Place the ramekins on a baking sheet and bake until the biscuits are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
