Beef Marsala Stew PT510M https://img1.recipesrun.com/201907/2019/0927/34/e/103152/300x200x90.jpg This is an ideal recipe for the slow cooker, where gentle, prolonged cooking turns tough beef into tender bites. Serve the stew over a mound of fluffy mashed potatoes. The stew tastes just as amazing cooked in either vessel, so choose what works best for you. If peas are allowed in your diet, I love to add them in at the end. Frozen is just fine, they thaw within seconds in the warm stew. They give a great pop of freshness. 8 servings Ingredients: fluffy mashed potatoes 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour 4 large carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces 8 oz. small button mushrooms 3 sprigs thyme 1 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1 1/2 cups unsalted beef stock 2 1/2 tbsp. sweet Marsala wine, divided 2 tbsp. unsalted tomato paste 4 cloves garlic 12 oz. cipollini onions 1 tsp. kosher salt, divided 2 tbsp. canola oil, divided 2 pounds boneless chuck roast
