SPEZZATINO DI MANZO CON LA POLENTA (BEEF STEW WITH POLENTA)
Time 2h30m
Yield Serves 4-6
Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- Pour a generous amount of olive oil (or a mixture of butter and oil) into a sauté or braising pan. Add the onion, carrot and celery and sauté very gently until the vegetables are very soft and the onion translucent. Adding a pinch of salt and a spoonful of water helps the vegetables cook and avoids browning.
- Now add the beef cubes and turn them with a wooden spoon or spatula so they are nicely coated with the vegetables and flavored oil. Season well with salt and pepper. Raise the heat a bit and let the beef brown very lightly, turning constantly to avoid burning.
- Now add a splash of wine and let it evaporate. Then add enough broth to almost cover the meat and, if using, nestle your fresh herbs among the beef cubes. (NB: Most Italian recipes call for much less broth than this, but this way will give you abundant sauce for pouring your polenta: see Notes below.)
- Cover, turn down the flame as low as it will go, and let the beef simmer very gently until fork-tender. Most recipes say an hour and a half, but I find two to three hours is more like it.
- When the meat is tender, uncover and check the consistency of the sauce. If it is rather thin, you can either raise the heat and let it evaporate and/or add a spoonful of corn or potato starch, dissolved in an equal amount of water, to thicken the sauce. If, on the other hand, you want more sauce, then just add more broth or water and let it simmer, uncovered, for a few minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
- Remove the fresh herbs, if used, and serve your Italian beef stew over a nice, hot bed of freshly made polenta (see recipe here).
POLENTA MEAT STEW
Found in Better Homes & Gardens Italian edition. It is a bit thinner than a regular stew, but has wonderful flavor. I cut the roast into 6 pieces, then cook it long enough that it shreds apart. In addition, I make recipe#205239 in place of the standard polenta mentioned here for an added dimension of flavor. Wonderful cold night food!

Steps:
- Trim fat from meat and cut into 1-inch pieces.
- In a plastic bag combine flour, thyme, basil, salt and pepper. Add meat pieces a few at a time, shaking to coat. Place meat in a 3 1/2-4 quart slow cooker. Add carrots, onions, garlic and rosemary. Stir in water, broth and wine.
- Cover and cook for 8-10 hours on low, or 4-5 hours on high.
- Stir in fresh rosemary, parsley and tomato paste. Serve with a spoonful of polenta in each bowl.
- Just prior to serving prepare polenta by bringing milk to simmer. In a bowl combine, cornmeal, water and salt. Slowly add to the warm milk, stirring constantly.
- Cook and stir until the mixture comes to a boiling. Reduce heat to low and cook 10-15 minutes until thick, stirring occasionally. (I sometimes add 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese and a tablespoon of butter at this point.).

ITALIAN BEEF STEW (SPEZZATINO DI MANZO)
Italian beef stew is a hearty dish made from cubes of chuck roast, mushrooms, carrots, and celery braised in a red wine sauce. Comfort for at its finest!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300f and make room on the middle rack for a large Dutch oven. Heat a large Dutch oven to medium-low heat, then add the olive oil, carrots, celery, and onion. Cook for 5 minutes then add the mushrooms, turn heat to medium, and continue to cook stirring frequently.
- While the veggies are sauteing, pat the chuck roast cubes dry. Once the mushrooms release their water and most of it has evaporated from the pot, season the beef cubes with salt and pepper and add to the pot.
- Coat the beef with the veggies and oil. Let the beef cook for 5-10 minutes (it won't develop much color). Next, turn heat to medium-high and add the wine and cook for 5-7 minutes or until it mostly evaporates and absorbs into the beef. Using a wooden spoon scrape up all of the brown bits while the beef is cooking.
- Add the beef stock, rosemary, and bay leaf and stir it all together. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and cook in the oven for 2 1/2 hours or until tender. For the last 30-45 minutes braise with no lid to thicken the sauce and add a bit of color to the meat.
- Once the beef is tender remove the pot from the oven. If there is too much liquid in the pot use a slurry of cornstarch (see notes) to thicken or cook over medium heat on the stovetop to thicken and reduce the liquid. Once satisfied with the consistency, taste test and make final adjustments to salt and pepper. Serve with crusty bread or with polenta or mashed potatoes. Enjoy!

- Preheat the oven to 325°. Season the shanks with salt and pepper. In a large enameled cast-iron casserole, heat the olive oil until shimmering.

- Heat a large heavy bottomed pot (I like using my enamelled cast iron pot for recipes like this) over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Season the cubes of beef chuck with salt and pepper and brown them on all sides in the pot. You may have to do this in 2 batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Don't worry about cooking the beef all the way through at this stage - just brown the outside.
- Remove the browned beef to a plate and add the onions, garlic, carrots and celery to the pot. Let the vegetables cook just until they've begun to soften.
