Recipe By : Toronto Star's Best of the Year article, December 29, 1993
Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Herbs Meats
Stews Tested
The Best! Main Dish
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
6 medium onions -- cut in wedges
2 1/2 pounds stewing beef*
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
341 milliliters beer -- (one can)
28 ounces canned tomatoes
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups mushrooms -- thickly sliced
pepper
chopped fresh parsley
* boneless short rib, blade or rump roast
In large dutch oven or oven-proof casserole with lid, heat half the butter
and oil over medium heat. Cook onions until beginning to brown, about 10
minutes. Reduce heat to low. Cook 7 to 10 minutes or until very tender and
golden. Remove onions; set aside. Wipe casserole.
Lightly coat meat in flour, shaking off excess. Heat remaining butter and
oil in casserole over medium high heat. Add meat in batches (pieces should
not touch) and brown well on both sides. Add to onions.
Pour off any fat. Add beer and bring to boil, stirring to scrape up brown
bits from bottom. Simmer beer over medium heat until reduced by one-third,
about three minutes.
Return onions and beef to casserole, along with tomatoes and their juices,
oregano, thyme, and salt. Cover snugly. Cook in preheated 325F oven 1 3/4 to
2 hours or until meat is fork tender. Heat olive oil in heavy skillet. Add
mushrooms. Cook over medium heat about 5 minutes, turning at intervals,
until nicely browned. Add to stew. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Garnish with parsley.
Makes 4 to 6 servings.

NOTES : This stew is great. Twice I've used a cross rib roast (1.5 kg) that
I cut up, for the stewing beef. The meat was quite tender and moist. Also,
it freezes well. Nutr. Assoc. : 0 0 0 2216 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

Subject: Candy Coated Popcorn
If you like the flavored popcorn at the specialty shops, maybe you'll
like this too.
Candy Coated Popcorn
8 to 10 cups popped popcorn
Brown paper sack, large enough to hold popcorn and still fit in
microwave
Nonstick Vegetable Spray (PAM)
1/4 cup margarine
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons white corn syrup
1 3-oz. package flavored gelatin (I use sugar free because this is
for flavor not sweetness)
3-4 drops food coloring (optional)
Spray paper sack thoroughly with PAM. Mix margarine, sugar, corn
syrup, gelatin, and food coloring in a microwave bowl. Cook 2-3
minutes on high, stir. Place popcorn in bag, pour mixture over
popcorn (not all in one spot) shake.
Cook on high 1 minute, shake
Cook 1 minute, shake
Cook 30 seconds, shake
Cook 30 seconds, shake
Pour on waxed paper. Break up when cool. Some flavors coat better
than others. Red and green are nice at Christmas.
