Anna June is cooking up a storm!
Anna June Johnson is cooking up a storm in my latest book-Cooking up Trouble at the Peabody Palace so today I'm giving you her simple beef stew recipe. But first a big hello and thank you to the ladies of Alpha Delta Kappa who were so gracious and supportive of me yesterday. I gave a short presentation about my writing journey and met some great gals. Thank you, it was fun. Anna June's Easy Beef Stew 2 pounds lean beef cut in bite size pieces 2 cups beef stock 1/2 pound sliced carrots 1 onion sliced 1 stalk celery sliced 4 large potatoes peeled and cubed flour for dredging 2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil salt and pepper Heat oil in heavy pot. Dredge beef in flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Cook the beef in the oil until all sides are browned. Add the beef broth at medium heat until broth comes to a boil. Then reduce heat, cover and simmer until beef is tender ( about 90 min.). Add vegetables to pot and simmer again until tender ( about 45 minutes). Ad
