{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} JIM'S E-Z STEW

 

JIM'S E-Z STEW

2 strips bacon
1 pound beef chuck, bite-size cubed
1 cup onion, roughly cut
1 cup potato, peeled and cubed
1/4 cup celery, with leaves, chopped
1/2 mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup green pepper
1/4 cup carrot, peeled and cut into rounds
2 cloves garlic, diced
1 teaspoon basil
Dash dry mustard
2 bay leaves, whole
2 tablespoons flour
2 cups beef broth
Salt and pepper
1/4 cup red wine (optional)

Fry the bacon in a stew pot. Remove, drain on a paper towel and crumble.
Brown the beef in the bacon fat. Add other ingredients except for broth
and flour and cook 5 minutes. Sprinkle on the flour last, stir to coat
and continue browning for five minutes. Add broth, stirring constantly
until liquid is uniform. Cover and simmer on low for two hours.
For a thicker sauce, add more flour or remove lid the last 30 minutes.
For a thinner sauce, add more broth and keep covered. Biscuits are a
must here.

Serves 2 to 4.
