In cool weather there is nothing better for winter than a stew. The other thing I love about stews is that they are easy to warm up and prepare in advance. I understand that to some people a stew seems way to much work, please consider that the stove top does most of the work, usually the actual preperations and cooking only take around 20 minutes. I also like to make large quantities of a stew, as they are a great dish to freeze or to serve to a group of people.
- Greek lamb stew – warm flavors and soft meat, what more could you ask for.
- Chickpea stew – even though my family thought a good stew always needs meat, with this recipe I proved them wrong.
- My mother’s Malaysian chicken curry
- My mother-in-law’s oxtail stew
- South African tomato bredie
The recipes to the last 2 stews will follow soon.
