Instructions
How to Make Stifado:
- Mix the tomato paste with the vinegar and set aside.
- Start layering the ingredients in a cast iron pot. First, place the meat on the base, then the onions, followed by the garlic, spices, and salt and pepper.
- Add the diced tomatoes, vinegar with tomato paste and oil.
- Top with the bay leaves and fresh rosemary sprigs.
- Cover the pot with a lid and put on a medium heat for a few minutes to warm up, then turn the heat down to a low simmer for 1½ hours. Do not open the lid or stir at all. Just give the pot a gentle shake every 30 minutes.
- After 1½ hours check the meat. If it is not falling apart, put the lid back on and cook for a further 30 mins. Once the meat looks ready, turn the heat off.
- Serve your Beef Stifado hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley or rosemary, and accompany it with rice, pasta, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
