# Carbonade Flamande (Traditional Flemish beef stew)
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
This one is a delicious slow cooked beef stewed in beer. Serves about 4.
|

The smoked bacon is not in the traditional recipe but it's good. Don't add it if you want the real deal.

|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Cut meat into big chunks
|
||
|
|
2. Dice onions
|
||
|
|
3. Sear the meat on high heat in a large stainless or cast iron pot until golden brown, using vegetable oil. Don't overcrowd the pot. Meanwhile, start sweating the onions in a pan, with the butter, and the smoked bacon.
|
||
|
|
4. Set meat aside, deglaze the pot with a bit of beer, put in the onions, bacons and the brown sugar.
|
||
|
|
5. Once the sugar is melted and the pot is deglazed properly, put the meat back in.
|
||
|
|
6. Pour the rest of the beer into the pot.
|
||
|
|
7. Toast the slices of gingerbread with a bit of mustard, put in the pot.
|
||
|
|
8. Add thyme, bay leaves, cloves, juniper berries
|
||
|
|
9. Add salt.
|
||
|
|
10. Let it simmer for 4 to 8 hours. Check on it regularly and add water if you feel like the sauce is too thick and you need to cook it longer.
|
||
|
|
11. Serve with a nice mashed potato.
