Dad's Beef Stew

"I'm not exactly sure where my dad got this recipe, but it's fool proof and very very tasty. On day 2 I'll pour some leftover stew over egg noodles for a sort of stroganoff. On day 3 I add 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp curry paste, then serve over white rice for a sort of Japanese beef curry."

  1. I did cut this recipe in half & still it made enough for the 2 of us for more than two meals! Not that I'm complaining, 'cause we both thoroughly enjoyed this stew! Since we don't usually eat much beef, it was a nice change of pace from our other soups, stews & chowders! Will be making this one again, for sure!
