"Patateslı et yahni": Turkish stewed beef

Writer: Leen Leen

Hey guys... My better half said this dish was the best I've made since we've been together, and I've made a lot for him, so that says something. Literally translated, it means "stew with potatoes and meat." I named it "Turkish stew" myself.


For 4 to 5 people as a main course

30 minutes of work + 2.5 hours of simmering


Ingredients:

  • 1 kg stewing beef (beef)

  • 1 red bell pepper

  • 3 onions

  • 3 cloves of garlic

  • 1 carrot

  • 1 teaspoon Turkish chili flakes (pul biber)

  • 2 tablespoons tomato paste (domates salçası)

  • 2 tablespoons paprika paste (biber salçası tatlı)

  • 700 ml beef broth and 300 ml water

  • Salt to taste

  • 1 kg waxy potatoes


Fresh parsley for garnish.




Instructions:

✨ Pour a splash of oil into a stew pot and brown the meat.

✨ Place the bell pepper, onion, garlic, and carrot in a food processor and chop them finely, almost to a puree.

✨ Add this mixture to the meat and allow it to sauté for a bit.

✨ Add the tomato paste, paprika paste, and pul biber. Season with salt to taste.

✨ Pour in the broth and water. Let it simmer gently for 2 to 3 hours with a lid.

✨ Peel the potatoes and add them in. Let it simmer for 30 minutes without the lid.

✨ Finish with fresh parsley.

✨ Serve with pilaf (rice), recipe can be found on my site
