Preparation

How to prepare Stew with Peas

To prepare the stew with peas, first clean and finely chop the celery 1, carrot 2, and onion 3.

Cut the meat into cubes of about 1 inch 4, then toss them in the flour 5 and coat them evenly 6. Transfer the meat cubes to a colander to remove excess flour.

Heat a dash of oil in a thick-bottomed pot, then add the meat cubes 7 and brown them for 5 minutes over high heat, stirring often 8. Add salt 9 and pepper.

Deglaze with white wine 10 and let it evaporate completely, then slightly lower the heat and add the chopped vegetables 11. Mix well and cover with hot broth 12.

Add the tomato paste 13 and mix again 14, then cover with a lid and let it simmer for 85 minutes, stirring occasionally 15 and adding more broth if necessary.
