Kokkinisto Beef Stew image

This is one of my best recipes and my ex-husband was actually hesitant (just a little, the miscreant--George, I know you will probably read this trying to steal my recipes, so relax...we need some entertainment value here)to leave me due to the fact that no other woman could make this like moi.
