Beef stew with tomatoes and potatoes
Overview
The weather has been too hot recently, and I don’t like cooking or eating. But I can’t stop eating, so I just eat something sweet and sour that’s appetizing and convenient. There are a few tips that can shorten the preparation time and make it delicious: 1. Cut the beef into small cubes and stew it in an iron pot, which can shorten the stewing time and make it easier to taste. 2. Add the diced potatoes in two batches. Stew the first batch until soft and mash, which will make the soup thicker and sandier. Add the second time and stew until cooked, making the taste richer. 3. Add dried hawthorn and diced apples, which have a sweet and sour fruit aroma and are more nutritious. It can make the beef stew easier, but it is chewier than the electric pressure cooker. 4. When collecting the juice, you can also leave some more soup to mix with the rice.
