Brisket Stew with Autumn Vegetables and Parsley Potatoes
Serves 4

Ingredients
Stew:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 two-and-a-quarter-pound lean beef brisket, cut into large bite-size cubes
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 onions, each cut into 8 pieces
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 large sprig fresh rosemary
1 large sprig fresh thyme
11/4 cups dry red wine
2 tomatoes, coarsely chopped
3 cups beef stock or chicken stock
2 parsnips, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 carrot, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 turnip, peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
Parsley potatoes:
12 medium Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2 1/2 pounds total), peeled
6 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1/4 bunch fresh flat leaf parsley, coarsely chopped

Method
– To prepare the stew: Heat the oil in a large heavy casserole pot over medium-high heat until it is very hot.
– Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper, and, working in two batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, add the beef to the pot and cook for 6 minutes, or until the beef is brown.
– Transfer the beef to a bowl.
– Add the onions, garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the same pot and cook for about 3 minutes, or until fragrant.
– Add the wine and tomatoes, stirring to scrape up the browned bits on the bottom of the pot.
– Simmer for 8 minutes, or until the wine has reduced by about half.
– Return the beef and accumulated juices in the bowl to the pot.
– Add the stock and bring to a gentle simmer.
– The beef should be just covered with the cooking liquid.
– Decrease the heat to medium-low.
– Place a lid on the pot and cook, simmering very gently and stirring occasionally, for 11/2 hours.
– Add the parsnips, carrot and turnip and return the lid to the pot.
– Simmer gently for about 1 hour longer, or until the vegetables are tender and the beef is tender enough to cut with a spoon.
– Using a slotted spoon, transfer the beef and vegetables to a bowl.
– Boil the cooking liquid over high heat for 20 minutes, or until it is reduced by half.
– Return the beef and vegetables to the pot and simmer gently just until they are heated through.
– Meanwhile, to prepare the parsley potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.
– Add the potatoes and cook for about 18 minutes, or until just tender and a skewer can be inserted into the center of the potato without resistance.
– Strain the potatoes and set aside.
– Melt the butter with the parsley in a large sauté pan over a medium heat.
– Add the potatoes and toss to coat.
– Season the potatoes to taste with salt and pepper.

– Spoon the beef stew onto 4 serving plates and serve the parsley potatoes alongside.
