beef stew with
Belgian Trappist
beer
Stew the coarsely chopped onions in a pot
over a medium heat. Coat the stew meat with
flour. Sear the pieces of meat in a pan with
butter until they are golden brown. Season
with pepper and salt.
Put the meat in the casserole with the onions.
Add cloves, bay leaf, thyme, sultanas, tomato
concentrate and the Liège pear syrup.
Generously spread a slice of bread without the
crust with (sharp) mustard. Place the slice of
bread in the casserole.
Submerge the meat in brown Trappist beer
and veal stock. Let it simmer for one and a half
to two hours on medium heat. There is no
need to put the lid on the pot. As soon as the
stew sauce has the desired thickness, then
place the lid on it. Finish off with a small dash
of balsamic vinegar if desired and stir
everything well before serving.
This should be accompanied, of course, by
Belgian fries and a good dollop of
mayonnaise.
