TSIMMES (BEEF, CARROT AND SWEET POTATO STEW)



Tsimmes (Beef, Carrot and Sweet Potato Stew) image

Tsimmes is a medieval German Jewish holiday beef stew that spread with the Jews to Eastern Europe. It was originally made with carrots and turnips, then when potatoes came to the Old World, they were added. When the dish came to the New World, sweet potatoes often replaces the white potatoes. Now I've tweaked it to my taste: I substitute the yellow yams or sweet potatoes with the white Japanese sweet potatoes that I love. I use flanken, a cut of short ribs found at kosher butchers, but any cut of short ribs will do, as will beef stew meat. I keep the bones in for flavor - and add a bay leaf for the same reason - and, rather than skimming the fat as it cooks, I simply put the stew pot in the refrigerator overnight so I can easily remove the hardened fat the next day. (A generation or two before me, cooks would have saved that fat for cooking and baking.) Instead of adding a little matzo meal to thicken the broth, I find no need for that, especially if I reduce the sauce a little before serving. I add pitted prunes, which are sweet enough to eliminate the need for brown sugar or honey and, at the end, I add parsley for color.

Time 11h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 bone-in flanken, also known as flanken-style ribs, or English-cut short ribs (about 3 pounds)
1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1 fresh (or dried) bay leaf
3 pounds sweet potatoes, preferably Japanese white sweet potatoes (3 to 4 large sweet potatoes), peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
2 medium white or yellow onions, halved and sliced
5 to 6 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch segments
8 ounces prunes, pitted and left whole
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving

Steps:

  • A day before serving, heat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • Season the meat with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper.
  • Put the meat and the bay leaf in a Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot, and add enough water to cover (about 8 cups). Bake, covered, for about an hour, then remove from heat, let cool and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next day, the fat will have congealed on top; using a slotted spoon, remove and discard the layer of fat.
  • Add the sweet potatoes, onions, carrots and prunes to the meat, and stir to combine. Bake, covered, for another hour, then remove the lid and cook until the potatoes are cooked, the meat is tender and the water is reduced, another 30 minutes to 1 hour. Season to taste. If there is more broth than you'd like, ladle some out and save for another use. Sprinkle with parsley just before serving.

Provided by Caroline Hire - Food writer

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 2h45m

Yield Serves a family of 4 - 6 or makes 6-8 toddler meals

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
2 carrots, finely diced (about 130g)
1-2 sticks celery, finely diced (about 130g)
2 fat cloves garlic, crushed
400-500g braising steak
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 low-salt beef stock cube
2 tbsp tomato purée
1 x 25g pack parsley, stalks and leaves finely chopped separately
1kg sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
knob of butter
handful grated cheddar

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a heavy-based pan. Add the onions and cook for 2 mins, then add the carrot and celery and cook until softened. Add a little water if the mixture sticks.
  • Add the braising steak and cook until browned, then stir in the garlic and cinnamon and cook for a further 1 - 2 mins until the aromas are released.
  • Add the stock cube to 500ml boiling water and stir into the meat, along with the tomato purée and parsley stalks. Bring to the boil and simmer covered for 1 hour, then take off the lid and simmer for another hour or until the meat is very tender. Stir in the chopped parsley leaves.
  • Transfer the stew into a medium-sized ceramic dish (that would be big enough for four adults), or into 6 - 8 large ramekins for make-ahead toddler portions.
  • Meanwhile, steam or boil the sweet potatoes until tender. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas mark 6. Drain the potatoes well and mash with the butter. Spoon on top of the meat, sprinkle with the cheese and cook on the top shelf for around 20 minutes until golden and bubbling.
  • Alternatively, cover and freeze the pie or mini pies for another time. Defrost thoroughly before cooking - you can do this by leaving it in the fridge overnight if you like. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas mark 6 and cook for around 30 - 35 mins or until golden, bubbling and hot throughout.
