It’s definitely beginning to look like fall around here. It feels like it as well on most days.
Even though I am definitely a summer person, I love the seasonal changes. The scenery. the weather. The foods. I think the changes in our dining that come about with the seasons makes me appreciate those foods even more.
One of my go-to fall and winter meals is a good stew. I make several versions, all of which Hubby really enjoys. This particular version uses caraway seed and is delicious with pork or beef. When I make it with the pork, I usually serve it over some slightly steamed cabbage. Yum!
HEARTY BEEF OR PORK STEW
1 pound medium new potatoes, cut into eighths
4 medium carrots, sliced (2 cups)
1 onion, cut in half lengthwise, thinly silced
3/4 to l pound beef top round or pork shoulder, cut into 3/2-inch cubes
1 cup beef broth (or vegetable broth)
3 Tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon caraway seed
1 garlic clove, minced
2 Tablespoons water
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
4 medium carrots, sliced (2 cups)
1 onion, cut in half lengthwise, thinly silced
3/4 to l pound beef top round or pork shoulder, cut into 3/2-inch cubes
1 cup beef broth (or vegetable broth)
3 Tablespoons tomato paste
2 teaspoons paprika
1/4 teaspoon caraway seed
