4 cups | water |
25 | pearl onions (peeled) |
1/3 cup | all purpose white flour |
1 tsp | salt |
1/4 tsp | fresh ground black pepper |
1 1/2 lbs | flank steak (3/4 inch cubes) |
cooking spray | |
1/2 lb | button mushrooms (quartered) |
1 cup | white onion (sliced) |
1 Tbsp | fresh lemon juice |
1 Tbsp | Worcestershire sauce |
1 lb | carrots (peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick) |
2 | bay leaves |
1 1/2 lbs | red potatoes (peeled and 3/4 inch cubes) |
1/8 tsp | ground allspice |
4 cups | water |
Heat water in a medium stock-pot over high heat until it is at a shiver. Add pearl onions and cook for about ten minutes. Drain and place the onions in a large stock pot.
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Mix flour, salt and pepper in a paper bag. Toss the cubes of flank steak in the flour, coating well.
Coat a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add cubes of flank steak and cook, turning until all sides are brown. Do not overcrowd the beef or the meat will steam and not brown. Remove the meat to the stock pot as it browns.
Add the onions to the skillet and cook until they are soft and brown. Add them to the stock pot.
Add the lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet and deglaze the pan, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan. Add the deglazing liquid to the stock pot.
Add carrots, bay leaves, potatoes, allspice and water to the stock-pot.
Place covered pot in the oven and reduce heat to 400°F.
Cook for one hour stirring gently every fifteen minutes.
