Mary Berry's one-pot beef stew is the perfect winter warmer, requiring just 30 minutes of preparation and five simple steps. The recipe, featured on BBC Food, is described as a warming beef stew flavoured with ginger, paprika, and horseradish.
The key to this dish lies in using quality braising steak and building flavours carefully. The recipe calls for browning the meat in hot oil, then cooking leeks in butter with ginger, paprika, and flour before adding stock and Worcestershire sauce.
After returning the meat to the pan, the stew is simmered and then cooked in the oven at 160°C for about one hour and 45 minutes to two hours. Celeriac is added later and cooked for a further 30 minutes until tender.
To finish, stir through horseradish cream and garnish with parsley. Mary suggests serving the stew with dauphinoise potatoes and green vegetables for a hearty meal.
