Ingredients
Scale
- 500g (1.1 lbs) beef stew meat, cubed
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced
- 3 cups beef broth
- 2 cups egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preparation:
- Season the beef stew meat with salt and pepper.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef cubes and brown them on all sides. Remove the beef from the pot and set it aside.
- Cooking the Vegetables:
- In the same pot, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, diced carrots, and diced celery. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes.
- Adding Beef and Broth:
- Return the browned beef cubes to the pot with the vegetables.
- Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot for extra flavor.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer, then cover and cook over low heat for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.
- Cooking the Noodles:
- Once the beef is tender, increase the heat to medium and add the egg noodles to the pot. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions, usually about 8-10 minutes, or until they are al dente.
- Thickening the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of flour with a bit of water to create a slurry.
- Stir the slurry into the pot with the beef and noodles, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Serving:
- Once the sauce has thickened and the noodles are cooked, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.
- Serve the Amish Beef & Noodles hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
