Irish Beef Stew
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound beef sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, chopped
  • 2 ribs celery, chopped
  • 3 cups hot water
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons dry brown gravy mix
  • 2 cubes beef bouillon
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 8 medium potatoes, cubed
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
1
Initiate cooking by heating a generous amount of vegetable oil in a substantial stockpot over an intermediate temperature.
2
Add the beef to the pot and cook until it develops a uniform brown color on all sides, taking approximately 6 to 8 minutes. Introduce the onion, carrots, and celery into the mixture, stirring them in thoroughly.
3
Combine water, a pre-packaged gravy mix, and a store-bought bouillon cube in a small bowl; pour the liquid into the stockpot. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, and dried oregano to enhance the flavor. Cover the pot with a lid and maintain a low temperature for 1 hour.
4
Add diced potatoes to the stockpot, ensuring they are fully submerged in the liquid. Cover the pot once more and continue to simmer until the potatoes can be easily pierced with a fork, taking around 30 minutes. Season the dish with salt and pepper to taste.
