Equipment
- Large pot or Dutch oven
- Wooden spoon
- Knife
- Cutting board
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons cannabis-infused olive oil
- 2 pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 onions, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 stalks celery, sliced
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 4 cups beef broth
- 1 cup red wine (optional)
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 3 potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 2 cups chopped mushrooms
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the cannabis-infused olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Season the beef cubes with salt and pepper, then add them to the pot in batches, allowing each batch to brown on all sides. Remove the browned beef from the pot and set aside.
- Add the diced onions to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic, carrots, and celery, and cook for another 3 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute.
- Pour in the beef broth and red wine (if using), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
- Return the browned beef to the pot and add the bay leaves, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Stir to combine.
- Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 1 hour.
- After 1 hour of simmering, add the potato chunks and chopped mushrooms to the pot. Stir well and continue to simmer, uncovered, for another 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the beef is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
- Remove the bay leaves from the pot and discard.
- Taste the stew and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
- Ladle the cannabis-infused beef stew into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of cannabis-infused olive oil according to your desired potency and tolerance.
- For a thicker stew, you can mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water and stir it into the stew during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Leftover stew can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for longer storage. Reheat gently before serving.
