Recipe Introduction
I believe that the simpler the stew the better. This recipe is very adaptable to your family's taste. I love it because I throw it together and forget about it. So delicious on a blustery and cold day. Not to mention the "welcome home" smell your house has because of it.
List of Ingredients
2 lbs stew meat, cut up (I tend to use leaner cuts of beef)
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon crushed dried marjoram
1 teaspoon crushed dried thyme
salt and pepper
5 carrots, peeled and cut up
4 large potatoes, peeled and quartered
10-15 boiling onions, peeled and left whole
2 cans swanson beef broth
1 can campbell beef consomme
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup water
Recipe
1. In crockpot, combine meat, all the seasoning, and all the vegetables.
2. Pour in all cans of beef broths adding water if it's necessary (too strong beef flavor or more liquid) Stir gently, cover and cook on low for 8 to 9 hours.
3. Then turn to high.
4. Dissolve the cornstarch and the water in a small bowl.
5. Stir into crockpot.
6. Cook for 15 minutes more or until thickened.
7. Don't forget to remove the bay leaf
