Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Begin by washing and straining the beef pieces thoroughly.
-
Cooking:
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Once the oil is hot, add the beef pieces and brown them evenly on all sides.
-
Adding Ingredients:
- Stir in the onions and sauté them along with the beef for approximately 5 minutes, allowing them to soften and become translucent.
- Pour in the vinegar, then add the finely diced tomatoes, minced garlic, rosemary, bay leaf, salt, and peppercorn to the pot.
-
Simmering:
- Pour in enough water to cover the ingredients in the pot.
- Allow the stew to come to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about two hours. This slow cooking process allows the flavors to meld together beautifully and the meat to become tender.
-
Serving:
- Once the stew has thickened and the meat is fork-tender, remove it from the heat.
- Serve the Stifado hot, accompanied by your favorite side dishes such as rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.
