Cozy up with a classic beef casserole, perfect for winter warmth.
Ingredients:
  • 5 whole cloves
  • 3 dried bay leaves
  • 50g butter
  • 1kg beef casserole steak, cut into 2cm cubes
  • 1L (4 cups) beef stock or cold water
  • 100.00 ml white wine vinegar
  • 1kg (about 4 large) brown onions, halved, thinly sliced
  • 40.00 gm cold water, extra
  • 10.00 gm cornflour
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
  • Steamed potatoes, to serve, if desired
  • 750g red cabbage, hard core removed, shredded
  • 125ml (1/2 cup) hot water
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 4 (about 250g) granny smith apples, peeled, cored, thinly sliced
  • 20g butter
  • 40.00 ml white wine vinegar
  • 36.00 gm sugar
Instructions:
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the butter until it starts to foam. Add one quarter of the beef and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned. Transfer to a bowl and repeat the process in three more batches with the remaining beef, making sure to heat the pan between each batch.
  • In a small jug, mix the stock, vinegar, cloves, and bay leaves. Put the beef back in the pan with the onion and stock mixture. Simmer covered on low heat, stirring occasionally, for 2 hours or until the beef is tender.
  • For the rode kool met appeltjes, combine cabbage, hot water, and cloves in a medium flameproof casserole dish over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper, bring to a boil, then simmer covered for 25 minutes until cabbage wilts. Add apple and butter, continue cooking covered for 10 minutes until apple is tender. Remove from heat, stir in vinegar and sugar until combined.
  • In a small bowl, mix the excess water and cornflour. Add the mixture to the beef, cook for 5 minutes until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Enjoy this dish right away alongside the delicious rode kool en appeltjes and steamed potatoes, if you'd like.
