Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sear the Meat

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef chunks and sear them on all sides until browned. Remove the meat from the pot and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent. Stir in the sliced carrots, diced potatoes, and chopped red bell pepper, cooking for another 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the seared beef to the pot. Add the diced tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, salt, black pepper, and thyme. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove the bay leaves before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve hot.
