Best Rich Red Wine Vegetable Stew Recipes

HEARTY VEGETABLE STEW RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, or until most of their juices have been released.
• Add the onions, carrots, and celery, and cook for 4-5 minutes, or until onions are semi-translucent.
• Add the garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper, tomato paste, and soy sauce, and cook for 2-3 more minutes, until the herbs are fragrant.
• Add the flour and stir until fully incorporated. Add the wine and stir until mostly absorbed.
• Add the potatoes, vegetable broth, and bay leaves, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the stew has thickened.
• Remove the bay leaves.
• Enjoy!

OXTAIL STEW WITH RED WINE AND ROOT VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Bring oxtails to room temperature and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear oxtails, until lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side, then remove from the skillet.
• Add carrots, celery, and onion to the pan. Saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes, then remove from the skillet.
• Pour 1/2 cup red wine into the skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes. Return oxtails and vegetables back to the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to low, and sweat the mixture until juices have been released, about 20 minutes.
• Combine remaining wine, beef broth, garlic, bay leaves, and thyme in a slow cooker. Add oxtail-vegetable mixture and cook on High until meat is fork-tender, 3 to 4 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Toss turnips and parsnips with remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil and season with salt and pepper. Place in a roasting pan.
• Roast in the oven until tender and lightly browned, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Remove oxtails from the slow cooker. Pull meat away from the bones, shredding meat and discarding any bits of fat and gristle. Pour liquid from the slow cooker through a mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing against the vegetable solids to mash them and push them through.
• Return strained liquid to the slow cooker and cook on High until reduced by about half, 30 to 45 minutes. Add roasted vegetables, oxtail meat, and parsley. Cook on Low until flavors have blended, 30 minutes to 1 hour.

RED WINE BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F.
• Season the meat with salt and pepper, place in a large bowl, and toss with the flour.
• Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or wide-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Cook the meat, in batches, until well browned on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes, transferring the pieces to a plate as they are browned. Pour off and discard any drippings from the pot.
• Add the tomato paste, wine, broth, onion, bay leaves, thyme, and 2 of the carrots and bring to a boil. Return the meat and any juices back to the pot (the meat should be barely submerged in liquid), cover, and transfer to the oven. Cook for 2 hours.
• Using tongs, remove and discard the cooked vegetables. Add the potatoes and the remaining 8 carrots to the pot, cover, and return to the oven. Cook until the meat and vegetables are fork-tender, about 1 hour more.

OLD-FASHIONED BEEF STEW

Steps:

• Combine the flour and pepper in a bowl, add the beef and toss to coat well. Heat 3 teaspoons of the oil in a large pot. Add the beef a few pieces at a time; do not overcrowd. Cook, turning the pieces until beef is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per batch; add more oil as needed between batches.
• Remove the beef from the pot and add the vinegar and wine. Cook over medium-high heat, scraping the pan with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits. Add the beef, beef broth and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a slow simmer.
• Cover and cook, skimming broth from time to time, until the beef is tender, about 1 1/2 hours. Add the onions and carrots and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes. Add the potatoes and simmer until vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes more. Add broth or water if the stew is dry. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle among 4 bowls and serve.
