Recipe Cooking and Preparation Method

Cut the meat evenly into small cubes. Brown the meat cubes in butter on a hot frying pan or in a saucepan. Place the browned meat into an ovenproof dish (with a lid). Cut the peeled onions in half and add to the dish. Add as much water as is needed to cover the meat. Add the seasonings.

Place the dish into an oven (250 degrees Celsius) without the lid and allow the meat to brown slightly. Stir the meat, add some water if needed and place the lid on top of the dish. Lower the heat to 150 – 175 degrees Celsius and allow the stew to simmer for at least 2 - 3 hours.

Food Serving Suggestion

Serve the Karelian Meat Stew hot together with mashed or boiled potatoes, pickled beetroots or pickled cucumbers.
