Stew Milanaise Recipe

(Stufato alla milanese)



Beat and flatten a good piece of meat and lard with bacon or ham cut in

small pieces. Season with salt, pepper and a taste of cinnamon. Sprinkle

flour over the meat.



Place in a saucepan a little fat of beef chopped with a middle sized

onion and brown with a piece of butter. When the onion is browned,

remove it and place the meat over the melted butter. Brown with melted

butter. Then fill the saucepan with half water, half red wine, but only

when the meat is browned from all sides. Cover the saucepan the best you

can, with cover and greased paper and let it simmer for five or six

hours on a very low fire.



After removing the stew, let it cool, rub the gravy through a sieve, put

again on the fire and serve hot.
