Il piatto unisce la rusticità dello spezzatino brasato con carote e cipolla alla morbidezza delle smashed potatoes al burro e prezzemolo. La carne, cotta lentamente nella pentola di terracotta con vino rosso e brodo, è tenera e saporita, mentre le carote dolci e le cipolle caramellate aggiungono profondità. Le patate, schiacciate e arricchite con burro e prezzemolo fresco, completano il tutto con una consistenza soffice e un sapore avvolgente. Un piatto caldo e accogliente, perfetto per serate rilassanti..

- Beef stew800 g
- Red wine200 ml
- Butter50 g

Procedure
0. Cut the meat into pieces of about 3 cm, dry them well with kitchen paper and season them with salt and pepper.
1. In a clay pot, heat a drizzle of oil and sauté the whole garlic clove, sliced onions, and sliced carrots. When the onions become translucent, remove the garlic.
2. Add the meat and brown it well on all sides. This step is important to seal in the meat's juices and ensure proper caramelization.
3. Blend with the red wine and let the alcohol evaporate for about 5 minutes.
4. Add the tomato paste, bay leaves and rosemary, then cover with the hot beef broth.
5. Cover the pot and cook over very low heat for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally. The meat should be tender and juicy. If necessary, add more broth during cooking.
6. Once cooked, season with salt and pepper and remove the bay leaves and rosemary.
7. Boil the potatoes whole with their skins for about 40 minutes, or until tender. The long cooking time makes the potatoes easier to mash and creamier.
8. Once cooked, peel the potatoes while they're still hot for a smoother result. Using a fork, mash the potatoes in a bowl, adding the butter cut into pieces. Stir until the butter melts and blends well with the potatoes. Garnish with chopped parsley and season with salt.
