BEEF STEW NOODLE RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large slowcooker, place the beef cubes, broth, onion, garlic, carrots, celery, tomatoes, Worcestershire, thyme, marjoram, basil, salt and pepper.
• Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours.
• When done, dissolve 3 tbsp cornstarch in the 1/4 cold water. Stir into the crockpot and replace cover.
• Cook the egg noodles according to package. Drain and stir into the crockpot.
• Cook on high for ten more minutes.
• Stir and serve.
• If you need more liquid, add it before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees . Place the meat in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the flour and toss to coat. In a large Dutch oven or ovenproof pot, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium-high heat until the butter stops foaming. Add a quarter of the meat to the Dutch oven and brown, about 6 minutes; transfer with a slotted spoon to a platter. Cook the remaining meat in 3 batches, adding 1 more tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 tablespoon butter to the Dutch oven for each batch.
• Add the onion, garlic and thyme to the Dutch oven and cook until the onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the browned beef, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, cocoa powder, paprika, cinnamon, bay leaf and beef broth and bring to a simmer. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook until the beef is tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
• About 20 minutes before the stew is done, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the egg noodles until al dente, about 7 minutes. Drain and toss with the remaining 2 1/2 tablespoons butter. Serve the stew over the noodles.
