Instruction

  • Season the beef with salt and pepper. Toss the beef in the flour, until all the pieces are lightly coated. In a large pan over medium high heat, add the butter and olive oil. Sear the beef until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
  • To the pan, add the garlic and onion. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the onions begin to soften. Add the tomatoes and the carrots, along with the herbs, wine, and stock. Add the beef back to the pot.
  • Bring the stew to a boil, cover, and simmer for 1 1/2 hours, until the beef is tender.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the noodles by boiling the egg noodles according to the package instructions in a pot of salted water. Toss the cooked noodles with the butter and parsley, and serve with the stew.
