[@nzfalcon8698]

did you make an Irish stew mmm yummy from NEW ZEALAND HELLO

[@melanieevans5600]

Making this right now in my Le Creuset dutch oven I got at an outlet yesterday for 35% off! Been wanting one forever! It’s smelling so amazing! Thanks Laura.

[@ryliebyers1449]

HI LAURA! I tried your taco meat recipe two days ago and I just loved it! I'm 13 and teaching myself how to cook and i love how simple your recipes and be! CANT WAIT to try more of your recipes!!

[@grapefruitsyrup8185]

time flies, ur 20 now !!

[@1LORENAMONGE]

I'm so thankful I found her here! Every recipe of hers I've tried has come out the best of its kind and this stew didn't disappoint, it was a hit. I made 5 lbs of meat with 6 potatoes and 4 carrots for the 6 peeps living under my roof and it disappeared almost immediately!

[@pearlyone1]

I like to brown my meat very well first so there's a lot of bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Then I add water or stock just to cover the beef and add an envelope of Lipton Onion/Mushroom soup mix. I let that simmer on low for 2 hours then I'll add all the vegetables and cook another hour. I add fresh parsley at the end and test for seasoning. I also like to add more uncommon vegetables such as cubed rutabaga along with carrots, potatoes, sliced mushrooms and celery.

[@karenhenry2013]

Made this recipe three days ago for my aunt who just came home from surgery. She's an extremely good cook, and very fussy about her food. She absolutely loved it and said it was the best stew she had ever eaten! Thanks so much Laura for your recipe. Definitely a keeper :)

[@LauraintheKitchen]

Hope you liked it! :)

[@Kyber3000-Kimberly]

Hope your doing well!!

[@hidouglas2349]

I'm not a cook but Laura Vitale, you have made me a cook. I have made this stew four or five times and every time it's a winner! I really appreciate how you go through the ingredients and step by step instructions. You make it easy to cook well. And I love your sense of humour. Thank you!

[@peschuh]

Laura I am definitely no cook but watched your you tube video on how to make beef stew and followed it to the letter. Made it for my wife and daughter.. and just want to thank you for your time and showing people like me who aren't pro's in he kitchen... Actually an RN by profession how to make new and tasty dishes! Can't wait to try another one of your many recipes very soon! 😎👍🏻

[@rb7994]

Cooking it now. Tasted the sauce and it already tastes amazing. Thanks for the recipe. You're my new favorite KZbin chef.

[@rb7994]

Family loved it. One of my sons had three huge bowls. BTW we served over Jasmine rice. Fantastic!

Laura I just made this for my friend and I this afternoon and It was amazing. Thank you for giving us this recipe.

[@joyceboone8206]

I do love stew and chilli especially in the winter months . I love to see this woman cook, she is awesome

[@richardrichard2789]

Laura, I learn something new when I watch you cook. Your recipes are great. Ty for making them and helping people cook better. :)

[@fritzy2112]

Dear Laura, I'm a great cook, so my friends and family say. You are a really great cook. I love your methods and your recipes. Thank you so so much.

[@collingamer1635]

This recipe is a keeper! I Made this recipe yesterday for my husband who has a cold also,to say the least it was delicious,very enjoyable and made my husband feel much better,definitely keeping this recipe

[@eastcoastbmws8741]

To anyone watching this in 2018 please do not I repeat do not stuff all your meat in the pot at once you want to brown the meat not steam it add a bit of meat at a time give it room to brown and I promise you by doing this the meat will have a better texture in your mouth

[@GaelinW]

Right. That meat is steamed not browned.

[@ToodleNoodle]

Beef needs room to do it's thing. I agree with you

[@amerzian]

I wonder if she was in a hurry cuz she wasn’t feeling good

[@IslandHome-o5v]

Delia Smith says not to crowd the pan and cause steam. 10 cubed pieces maximum browned on all sides to look nutty as she calls it.

[@jimmynoleaksboilerman7348]

Nice catch, also I put onion and garlic early and reserve potato and carrot and celery for last 40 minutes I like firm veggies. And a little fresh parsley at the end.

[@Grandpurpose]

Thanks Laura, I never really cooked before and made your stew. Its the best food I ever had and gave me confidence to cook more often. Greatly appreciate your video. I add string beans and mushrooms. 👍

[@SarthorS]

The worst thing about making beef stew is having the smell permeate the house for 2 hours, and not being able to eat it until it's finished.

[@Super.AmmarI0]

permeate the HOUSE.MD?

[@Lightskinn_Shayy]

SarthorS that’s why you start early i take my me out the freezer at night and start cooking 3 hours before I want to have my dinner

[@dougadoo1976able]

Best torture of my life is to smell a good BEEF STEW COOKING

[@jindrichzapletal5822]

just use a pressure cooker. you will be done in quarter of the time and there is no smell

[@SarthorS]

@khaled aldoraee That's what happens when you watch too much Jake Paul. I'm afraid there is no cure. The brain damage is permanent.

[@SmapAttack]

I just made this tonight and even though I'm a terrible cook, it came out wonderful! Thanks for the recipe!

[@polinasweets5932]

*Only 18* 👇👇👇 350710.loveisreal.ru

[@peggysriley1]

Just made this...it is so good. Used Cupcake Vineyards Red Velvet Wine (recommended by the lady that worked in the wine dept). Only used 2 pounds of stew meat; used a 4 cup box of beef broth; also used dry Rosemary and Thyme instead of fresh. I had never cooked with wine before; I will never make beef stew again without it. No, the vegetables don't overcook. This recipe is the best tasting beef stew I've ever tasted. Thanks Laura!

[@adgroves6461]

Best beef stew I have ever had! The flavor is on point!

[@raydimmock4336]

We learn so much from online personalities like Laura. Most of the time it beats a recipe book

[@samathywoo589]

Tried this recipe yesterday really works and tasty! Gonna practise few more times, would definitely be a crowd pleaser! Brilliant Laura!!!!!!

[@kimoyacas]

Been cooking this one many times minus the wine..My wife and son sooo love it very,very much..Thank you very much.

[@ktdreams510]

I have to say, I made beef stew yesterday using your recipe as a guideline and I made so many people happy. Great recipe, thanks!!

[@queenroyaltyrules55]

I just made this for dinner today and it is heavenly. Thank you so much!! What a great Sunday dinner.

[@darleenthompson9550]

This was my first dish I made from Laura Vitale, it was super!!! filling and tasted superb!! Thanks Laura, I'm a new fan!!

[@jlowandbehold]

Madam Vitale you are a genius. Mine is currently simmering away and I cannot wait to taste it. Thank you 😀

[@toomuchii]

Laura! I just made this for dinner, it was unbelievable ! Seriously I think I've died and gone to heaven, thank you so much!

[@mbchudno]

i think its better to brown meat in smaller batches on larger pan and let it to get a crust, then de-glaze brown bits off it with red wine and pour it into the stew pan. gives much stronger meat flavour. otherwise its a great recipe.

[@hawaiidispenser]

mbchudno Agreed. I winced when she said the meat was all browned at 2:19 when the meat was clearly a steamed, grayish color. But she was ill when she filmed this, so I'll cut her some slack. :)

[@mbchudno]

Yeah. No complains. Video is good. My better half sometimes lazy to sear the meat properly when she does it with similar recipe I taught her, so its almost a reflex comment :). Big thanks to the chef. It looks delish anyway.

[@mbchudno]

***** i hear you, but she is awesome anyway and her food videos are great. :)

[@mbchudno]

i find that if you get one slab of meat, you can simply cut it in steak shaped peaces, then give 2 sides of each really good crust, then let them rest a little while you do the other pieces of meat and then just cut all those "steaks" into bite size pieces and stew them. that way you don't have to deal with 100 little pieces and you don't loose as much juice while searing. You kind of get sear on 2 sides, but i think its plenty for stewing.

[@mariabazan323]

*****

[@kimwest616]

OMG! I just made this beef stew & it was awesome! I substituted broccoli for the peas. My husband even ate the carrots and he hates carrots! Definitely a keeper! Thanks Laura!

[@articledon4880]

Cooking this now. Smells real good. Only thing is potatoes over cooked to the point they just mashed away. I think it will taste great. Next time I'll add the potato to the pot a little later

[@jjouney]

The same thing happened to me. I think she made a mistake on the cooking time.

[@articledon4880]

i just made this again. this time i did not pre cook the potato and stuff. i just put it all in at the same time. came out perfect

[@Nejilee4ever]

Thanks for the tip!

[@_helmi]

Yeah the potato for 2 hours? Literally it made the stew very starchy because at the end of cooking, the potatoes were no where to be seen. Great flavours though

[@QuyenTran-hh5lg]

articledon doesnt even need 2 hours, 1hour and 30 mins max.

[@dechousekeepinglobby1468]

i just can't get enough of your cooking. You are the best

I am so glad I found you. I am French, and the cooking is so similar to Italian that I seem to love every single recipe. My boyfriend adores you because out of the 2 recipes I've tried so far, they were both AMAZING. This one is gorgeous, but I'm leaving to rest and develop over night - Yum ! And tomorrow, I am making another one of yours, can't wait! Thank you so much for being so awesome!

[@LauraintheKitchen]

so glad to hear that! :)

I am so excited to make this tomorrow! I have watched this video like 5 times.

[@17025601]

Made this last night, cut down for 1 pound of stew beef. Followed ingredients but added four brown mushrooms quartered. Excellent instructions. Delicious dinner!!!! Thank you. Five stars!

[@willconwayjr5874]

I like to use the flour on the meat before browning it.

Followed this recipe a T, only added Calypso hot sauce because I love heat. It came out BEAUTIFUL. I never made such a tasty beef stew. Thanks for the lesson Laura. ☺️

[@Clint_the_Audio-Photo_Guy]

I make it similarly, but I don't use flower or peas, and I cut my beef about 3 times as big. I also add garlic, fresh thyme, 1/2 tsp of Emeril's essence and a tablespoon of balsamic at the end. I usually make 2-3 times this much at once, then I portion it out and freeze them. I make out 12 qts at a time and it's always delicious. People at work are always jealous when I heat one up in the microwave.

I made this tonight! it was amazing so yummy I'm excited for leftovers tomorrow :)

[@CHAVEOCHOA]

What kind of wine did you use? What brand?

[@Karlaekz1]

[@auntiegina03]

Laura, I just wanted to say Thank You for sharing this recipe. It is cold here and my husband and I have terrible headcolds. This was a perfect treat to warm us up, it was filling and was very satisfying and comforting. Oh and it was delicious! :)

[@jonathanurbina4666]

Hi Laura I tried your recipe this evening for dinner and my family and I loved it. It was perfect. Thank you for sharing. I have also tried your chili recipe and it always comes out great. THANK YOU so much.

[@thejompi]

In Puerto Rico we don't use flour as a thickening agent. we use tomato paste and the potato itself serves as a thickening agent. Bechamel sauces and the like seem foreign to a home cooker. But common to a trained chef even if he's from Puerto Rico.

[@mel-tb9vq]

same

[@TabiOrmar]

+thejompi White rice and tostones and I'm done!

[@JV-ow2rt]

wow!! thank you so much, I just made it by following your instructions...its just smelling so good that my parents came to see me to see whats cooking.... and its my first time cooking.

[@mulus2008]

third time Im making this . and still love it . thanks

[@akmooreland]

Hi laura I have tried 2 of your recipes . So far everyonE has love them. The stew is excellent . Just keep cooking. Thankyou Challon

[@thesantos1175]

In the Philippines we call this dish CALDERETA but with a hint of spice. U should try adding a little bit of maybe dried chilis or fresh chilis. If in any case you want something spicy :)

[@WestcountryDude]

Calderetta is the king of Filipino food for me. One of my favourite Asian dishes. I think they use liver paste and peppers too. It's probably not what a Westerner would expect if he is expecting a winter stew though!

[@thesantos1175]

Oh yeah, i totally forgot about the liver paste. But looks exactly the same, yeah?

[@WestcountryDude]

Petite David Similar..ish! hehe Both yummy though.

[@barbaraandted]

+Petite David mine turned out a lil spicey yet i've added no spice. I have no idea why, maybe the ghost of a chilli lives on my cooker.

[@LoveLife-gv8jg]

I looked at 4 beef stew recipes before deciding on this one. It was delicious! I really like how you made sure each ingredient was incorporated properly before you started adding the next. I love recipes like that

[@darktoadone5068]

Nothing like beef stew when it's cold outside.

[@dsxcleb2nv]

I'm meant to be asleep now but i cant stop watching your videos!!! I may well be your biggest Australian fan!!

[@CapitalSamy]

Cooking this right now, so far it looks really good :D (2 more hours to go)

[@tatyanamunoz5002]

just made this recipe for dinner tonight and it was great!! the only tweaks I'd make: first, put in the meat in batches rather than all at once, so it can properly caramelize. I also added a splash or two of worshestrire sauce, and another splash or two of wine than originally called for ;) I served this over some mashed potatoes. it was a very thick and hearty meal, perfect for this time of year. TONS of leftovers!

[@TheKnowlege33]

would it not be better to do the meat in batches?

[@nickdaaboul]

LoL I couldn't make this up if I tried! You are BY FAR my favorite, I a, a bachelor and literally have learned how to cook everything from you ! Thanks so much! I LOVE the roast chicken recipe !

[@mawraahmed9622]

Laura: put the lid on and reduce the heat to medium Me: yess so easy so quick Laura: and leave it for 2 and a half hours Me: nevermind....

[@MAGAMAN]

If you want it thicker, don't put a lid on it for the full time it is cooking. Cook it without a lid until it thickens to how you like it, then put the lid back on for the rest of the time.

[@KeventeLewis]

Right lol

[@rosanattes9409]

Try slow cooker

[@kennyhowell1537]

I think there must be a new definition of "well caramelized beef" as I did not see one chunk of beef I would call well caramelized.

[@jnnlis]

Kenny Howell agree. Most of the meat was grey 😬

[@mercyngo1154]

jnnlis hhhhhhj

[@Eidann63]

She added way too much meat in the pan all at once; it needed to be done in several batches at a time, with all that stew beef. Too much meat together steams it, it will never brown.

[@sandoshack]

Yeah she overcrowded the meat way too much. I would have broken that batch into halves or thirds. She steamed the meat rather than fry it. She didnt add any flavor from that meat.

[@ginapocan]

Hey Laura, is there a reason why you don't coat your meat with the flour before you brown it. A lot of people do that. That's why I ask. Another question, you went ahead and put those veggies in the broth to cook, then added your meat, don't those veggies over cook when cooking it for 2 hours. I mean I can see cooking the meat like that, but the veggies themselves only take 25 to 30 minutes to cook. Last question, PLEASE tell me what kind of wine did you use in that? I don't know much about wine. My 18 year old daughter picked out this nasty wine, HAHA! called Barefoot, (never again, lol). I like a robust flavor. So, please tell me what you used?

[@AliciaRyann]

the carrot will be too crunchy if not cooked 2 hrs or so, the potatoes i suppose could be added the last 45 mins, and the onion and celery are more for stock lavoring than actual veggies. as for the wine, any cheap red wine ($10 bottle) usually works, as you're cooking out the alcohol. i just ask for red cooking wine at my local outlet.

[@shair00]

I always coat my meat in flour. I make a pork chop casserole and I started coating the pork chops and browning them before I add other ingredients. Have you looked at cookinginrussia yet? He is a true five star chef and there are alot of recipes, I highly recommend you look at his page if you have not already :)

[@ginapocan]

shair00 Thanks. I'll try and find him.

[@ginapocan]

***** ya kidding, she's my top favorite. I watch a lot of them, but I like her style. I'm so jealous of her, HAHA!!! How she keeps her figure and eat the way she does just amazes me. :P Her meals aren't for the immature cook, that's for sure but, she invites everyone to the table. Great gal!!!!

[@nanasophieholm9252]

+Gina Pocan You have to remember that you are going to cook the stew on low - meaning the stew will not be at a rolling boil for 2,5 hours, so the veggies will cook low and slow, and get a great consistency :)

[@FIyingDumpling]

I love how easy your recipes are!

[@monicamedina6002]

Hi Laura!!! Hey how do you make Beef stock?? Could you please show us how!! Thank you 😊

Would have been nice if you listed the ingredients in the description.

[@HeyItsSarah30]

That's why you go on her website to get the ingredients/directions. And she puts the link in the description.

[@yolandapastoriza]

I made this recipe almost the same except I didn't use the wine. Everyone's version of beef stew is different.. I personally LOVED it! It came out exactly how it should! People, if you don't have anything nice to say.. just don't comment... I've made numerous recipes that Laura puts out there and she had never done me wrong. Also, she always says .. "this is how I do it" meaning theres no right or wrong

[@kasandraedson7071]

Everything about this is what I have learned is the wrong way to cook beef stew. I am not a professional but I have learned from professionals and the most talented home cooks my whole life. She didn't caramelize the beef. There was so much beef in the pot that it steamed. You are better off on medium high heat with less beef to get a real dark brown (thats the flavor). Then she added her veggies - What??! The veggies cooking for 2.5 hours will be mush! She should have cooked her onions and garlic in the pan and deglazed then put the beef back in to cook for a couple of hours; adding the vegetables about 40 mins or so before serving. Weird, because I usually love her recipes.

[@kasandraedson7071]

And ALSO I am pretty sure my beef stew is as good if not better than what you made cooking veggies for 2 hours. Thanks :)

[@nathanblue]

Kasandra Edson and you've watched the video because? No one cares about the way you prepare your food so STFU!!!

[@beau4307]

You should do a You Tube video also and post. I'd like to see your version.

[@kasandraedson7071]

thanks BG I have been considering starting a channel but I do not have a good space. My apartments kitchen is closed off (basement apt) so the lighting is really tough. I might do one, if so I will come back here and tag you.
