Russian Winter Stew Recipes

RUSSIAN WINTER STEW

Steps:

• 1. Add all your ingredients (except the dried plums) to your crockpot and let cook for 4 to 6 hours. I would start out with 1 cup of marsala and 1 cup of orange carrot juice and then add more if necessary. You will add the plums about 1/2 before ready to serve. Garnish and serve over biscuits, rice or noodles. Add your thickner when it comes closer to being done. If you have any questions on that just ask. (If you add the plums any sooner they will fall apart.) This is a very hearty dish and great for the Autumn weather.
• 2. Some products that I used in the stew.

• Cube beef and fry in butter until light brown.
• In a ceramic pot, put beef, potatoes, onion, carrot, roots, garlic, season with salt and pepper and pour in the broth.
• Cook in the oven for 30 minutes at 350, or crockpot for 4 hours on low.
