Instructions
- Heat a pot with the avocado oil using medium-high heat.
- Cut the onions, carrots and celery stalks into small dices. If the beef is not pre-cut, cut it into chunky dices.
- Add the beef to the pot and sear it until it browns. Set the beef aside. Next, add the onions, celery and carrots to the pot and sauté them shortly. Then, add the tomato paste and sauté for approx. 2 more minutes.
- Add the beef, red wine and the beef bone broth to the pot. Put the bay leaves into the pot. Add the paprika powder, salt and pepper.
- Bring the beef stew to a boil, then cover the pot with the lid and let the beef stew simmer on low heat for 2 hours and 30 minutes.
- Test if the meat is soft enough. If it is not, let it simmer for 30 minutes longer. Add more spices or salt and pepper if you need to. If the consistency is not thick enough, let it simmer some more without the lid.
