Kavardak! Russian Beef Stew

Look at this… 👀 https://pin.it/4x7FSO2

It’s that time of year to get your cast iron pots out and get ready to crank up the oven. I am talking about winter. What says winter like Russia? Or any country with Artic access. Yeah! Let’s lookat Peter’s Kavardak (Кавардак). We will lookat this stew by categories.

PROTEIN: Beef or lamb. Which ever is either available or affordable. I am going to put the beef stock here.

VEGGIES: Onion, carrots, potatoes. What beef (or stew) is complete without potatoes? I don’t know.

SEASONINGS: Garlic, salt/pepper, coriander, and cumin. Sounds like an earthy flavor combination to me.

Cooking…. I would brown the meat off to seal in flavor and put it in a crockpot or in the winter, put your oven on 200° and let it cook all day.

What to serve with this stew? Crackers are okay but a nice rustic bread would be awesome. Maybe a veggie plate with raw veggies with dips.

Hello y'all! I have hit a point in my life that I miss the simple dishes and times that my parents grew up in. People were kind to each other and the food was homemade from scratch. Before convince food was everywhere. Oh, those were the days... Let's reclaim them and start cooking from scratch again.
