Instructions

  • Step 1

    Heat a large Dutch oven or soup pot over medium heat. Add oil and let heat for two minutes.

  • Step 2

    Add cubes of beef and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned (2 to 3 minutes), then flip and brown on the other side. You may have to brown your beef in two batches to allow room for every piece.

  • Step 3

    Remove the browned beef from the pot and set aside.

  • Step 4

    Add the onion, celery, and carrots, cooking and stirring until onion has softened and is starting to brown (add additional oil if pan is too dry).

  • Step 5

    Stir in garlic, salt, pepper, thyme—cook and stir for one minute.

  • Step 6

    Stir in corn starch until all white is gone.

  • Step 7

    Add red wine to the pot and use a wooden spoon to scrape any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.

  • Step 8

    Stir in the beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, potatoes, and browned beef. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, then cover and reduce the heat to low.

  • Step 9

    Simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until potatoes and carrots are tender, about 20 minutes. Stir in peas, adjust seasoning to taste and serve.
