There’s something about a good stew that will always be comforting, about all your favorite ingredients all together in one hot and tasty bowl. We’re coming at ya’ this week with our take on a quick, easy, hearty, and oh-so-delicious Beef and Lentil Stew, straight from the family cookbook passed down for generations, so you know it’s good.

Like any good stew, there isn’t much in the way before you’re ready to get cooking, we just chopped some golden potatoes and yellow onions into small pieces for later. This is one you can adapt to your own taste, we used golden potatoes, but some nice red potatoes would be delicious in this as well, along with any of your other favorite veggies like carrots or celery.

Once you’re cooking, you don’t need to stop until it’s all done, and all you need is a large pot or Dutch oven. We used Midamars Halal beef stew meat which works perfectly for this. It’s precut into chunks saving you a step during the prep, or you can use Midamars Halal lamb stew meat, goat cubes, or even a chuck roast for this.

Brown the beef and the onions in the pot before adding in a healthy amount of beef stock and let them simmer for a bit. Then toss in the potatoes and lentils to simmer for a while longer before seasoning it to your taste with salt and pepper.

We kept the seasoning simple, just to better accentuate the natural flavors of the beef, potatoes, and lentils. This is a simple, savory, and earthy stew and we wanted to keep it that way for that classic, homestyle taste. The lentils will absorb a lot of the broth as they soften, so you may need to add some more to get the stew a little soupier, so if you do, adjust the seasoning accordingly and you’re ready to serve.

This is a great, simple recipe for serving the family on a busy night or when you’re all craving something simple yet comforting. This is a little family recipe we’re excited for you to try for yourself, make a few changes if you think of something to make it even tastier, and before you know it, you’ll have your own Beef and Lentil Stew recipe you can pass down.
