How do I get a meal out of this families? Something like a stew

not showcased: potaters.
Obviously I don't need to use everything, but the more I use the better, to outweigh the cost of the beef

I mean, if you want a stew then make a stew man, it kind of puts itself together really. Leeks, carrots, and onion as the base, then flour and sear your beef, add beef stock and tomatoes if you want, add herbs/aromatics like bay and stuff and then leave for as long as you like. Serve with mash from the potatoes or go fancy and do some fondant potatoes.

What this guy said
You can also add the potatoes to the stew itself

>then flour and sear your beef,
h-how do you flour beef?

>>8299565
this was actually at kvickly, they just have their claws in everything

>>8299569
Erm. You get some flour and, you know, roll the beef in it? Usually with a bit of salt and pepper in the flour.

>>8299569
By rubbing it with flour?

I see, thanks

put flour on a plate, dip both sides of the beef in flour, shake/brush off excess. brown the meat, but careful not to burn the flour

I'd just make a soup with the beef boiled tender, potatoes, carrots and chicken stock, but maybe that's a waste of a decent cut of meat. It's simple and really good with some flour dumplings.

nasty

That's you people's solution to everything

That's not a cut appropriate for stewing m8. If you braise it it will come out like shoe leather. Try a steak au poivre: http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1017319-simple-steak-au-poivre with mashed leek taters. Or roast the taters and braise the leeks: http://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/12667-elizabeths-braised-leeks-with-parmesan In the future you want a cut like chuck for braising.

This has been helpful, thanks
