Beef And Bean Stew Cholent Recipes

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, paprika, salt and cayenne. Add beef, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a Dutch oven over medium heat, brown beef in 2 tablespoons oil. Remove with a slotted spoon; set aside. , In the same pan, saute onions in the remaining oil until crisp-tender. Add the water, tomato paste, sage and thyme. Return beef to pan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 1-1/4 hours, stirring occasionally. , Add more water if needed. Stir in beans. Cover and simmer 15 minutes longer or until meat is tender.

Steps:

• Soak the beans in water to cover for 8 hours, and drain.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large clay pot, place the beans, beef, potatoes, salt, pepper, onion and water. Cover the pot tightly, first with a piece of aluminum foil, then with the lid of the pot.
• Put the pot in the oven for 30 minutes. Then reduce the heat to 200 degrees and bake overnight, at least 10 hours. Do not stir or disturb in any way.
• Warm the chicken broth. Ladle the stew into soup plates. Ladle the chicken broth over the stew and serve.

Steps:

• Line the bottom of a slow cooker with the potatoes, the onion and then the short ribs, sprinkling the meat with pepper to taste.
• Scatter the barley and the beans on top, then pour on the broth and the honey or molasses. Sprinkle with the paprika and salt to taste. Add enough water to cover all the ingredients. Cook on low for 12 to 15 hours, stirring occasionally (except during Shabbat, for those who observe it), adding more water if necessary. The longer the cholent cooks, the better it will be.
