A lovely stew recipe, though I've never seen or eaten one with pears!
Very innovative and excellent combination of flavours.I am taking this wonderful recipe with me, many thanks x
An original combination! I bet it tastes really good!Cheers,Rosa
MarijaYour stew is a delight; love the addition of pears.
Wow kako ovo mora bit ukusno. Od kad sam probala lungić s kruškama totalni sam zagovornik kombinacije mesa i tog voća tako da ću i ovo sigurno isprobati.
Ovo bilježim jer izgleda fenomenalno i čim naše viljamovke sazriju, dokumentiram kako je bilo!
what a lovely dinner. I never had beef with pears before-looks good
uuu, jako zanimljiva kombinacija! mora da je sjajna…
Hej, zaključila sam da je ovo kobno po moju dijetu
I made curry beef stew with pears. I used a little olive oil and brown the strips of beef. I added solid medium yellow curry in the pan with cut celery, onions, carrots and green and red bell peppers. Next water and brought it to a medium boil and one can of coconut milk. Turn to a simmer and stirred from the bottom. After one hour or so I added a package of instant white gravy and some yellow curry powder, white pepper and a pinch of red pepper stirring and allowing all to blend. After about 35 minutes of medium boil I turned the heat to low simmer and added pears slices (1 pears sliced into 1/8). 20 minutes later turned the stove off and let stand until ready to eight.
