Cooking beef stew with prunes in a frying pan: 2 recipes

The dish is so rich in tastes and smells that, despite its everyday occurrence, it can successfully claim the main space on a formal table. When we say “prunes,” we mean dried fruit, but do you understand that very tasty meat comes out with the freshest plums? Therefore, now you have two recipes with photos of beef stewed with prunes - dried and fresh. Both were prepared by our creators, so below you will see not only step-by-step photos of the manufacturing steps, but also receive guaranteed tested recipes.

Beef with prunes: recipe with photos step by step

What we will need for 4-6 servings:

beef (pulp) – 500g;
onions – 1-2 heads;
prunes – 200g;
vegetable oil – 50ml;
tomato paste – 1 tbsp;
spices for meat – 1 tsp;
dried ground paprika – 1 tsp;
salt – 1 tsp. without a slide or to taste.

How to cook beef with prunes

We wash the meat, peel it from films and cut it into fairly large pieces of a similar size.
We clean the onion and cut it into cubes, the size is not important to us.
We simply wash the prunes. It’s better for us to take them without seeds, so as not to bother with taking them out. If the prunes are large, you can cut them in half. If you want the sauce - gravy to contain only small pieces and for it to become thicker - chop finely.
Pour oil into the frying pan, heat it very well and add the beef. It is necessary to fry it in parts, so that the pieces in the pan are not too crowded, and each one is perfectly fried to a crust on all sides. There is no need to fry until fully cooked, we just need to get a crust.
As soon as we receive it, immediately remove a portion of beef from the frying pan into a bowl and set it aside for now.
Add the onion to the same frying pan with the same oil. We sauté it, stirring frequently, to collect all the meat juices and small “roasts” remaining from the beef. 2 minutes is enough.
Add tomato paste, stir and continue frying. After frying, the tomato will retain the intensity of its color in the finished dish.
Return the meat to the pan. Salt and add spices. Mix.
Just 1 minute is enough and you can pour boiling water from the kettle. The amount of water should be such that it almost completely covers the pieces of meat. Reduce the heat, cover with a lid and simmer until the meat is soft. By the way, if you wish, you can pour 50 ml of reddish dry wine. The taste will be even richer.
When it’s ready, add the prunes, simmer everything together for another 10-15 minutes and turn off. If, when adding prunes, it seems to you that there is not much sauce in the dish, add a little more water.

Stewed beef with prunes, either roast or goulash, as you prefer, sprinkle with finely chopped fresh herbs in a plate and serve with a potato side dish.

Beef stew with fresh prunes: step-by-step recipe

Ingredients for 3-4 servings:

beef - 250g;
pork with fat - 250g;
sunflower oil - 70ml;
onion - 400g;
chili pepper - 1 pc;
plum - 400g;
khmeli-suneli seasoning - 1 tbsp;
fresh basil - 1/2 bunch;
fresh dill - 1/2 bunch;
fresh parsley - 1/2 bunch;
garlic – 3-5 cloves;
salt - to taste.

How to cook beef with the freshest prunes deliciously

Cut the meat into random but large pieces.
Heat the oil perfectly in a frying pan. We lay out both beef and pork immediately. Fry well, stirring, for about 7 minutes.
Dice the onion and finely chop the garlic with a knife. It is better to first cut the pepper in half, remove the seeds from it, because they give the main spice, and then chop finely. When performing this operation, it is better to wear gloves, because the pepper burns your hands for quite a long time.
Place them in the pan with the meat and continue cooking, stirring, for another 3-4 minutes.
Salt to taste, add suneli hops.
Cut the plums into halves and remove them from their pits.
We send it to the fried meat. Unlike the version with prunes, there is no need to add water. In this case, the plums will release juice, and there will be enough of it for the beef to stew until cooked, and even more so for the pork. Mix with caution so as not to destroy the plum halves.
We chop the greens finely, but add them to the already prepared meat so that they do not lose their own smell.

In this version, beef with prunes can be served to the table completely without a side dish, supplemented only with the freshest snow-white bread or flatbreads like khachapuri.

Beef with prunes

Beef is one of the most necessary types of meat, which most nutritionists recommend consuming at least 1-2 times a week. Beef is a favorite in terms of valuable protein content, which is why it is simply needed by athletes, growing children's bodies and those who are recovering from an illness. This type of meat serves as the main source of easily digestible iron, which is why for women who lose a huge number of blood cells every month, its constant consumption is especially beneficial. In addition, beef contains a very small amount of fat and, accordingly, is simply irreplaceable in dietary nutrition, helping to maintain a slim figure and good functioning of the gastrointestinal tract.

Not everyone loves beef dishes; almost everyone considers this meat to be dry, hard, hard to chew and quite sour. And it really can be like that if you choose the wrong method of making it. I consider the best option for processing beef to be long stewing in some tasty sauce. Before stewing, pieces of meat should be quickly fried over high heat until golden brown in order to “seal in” all the juices and end up with a tender, juicy dish.

Now I propose to cook beef stew in a very rich and rich-tasting sauce of vegetables and prunes with a tomato note. The meat according to this recipe comes out very soft and fragrant, it is imbued with the sweetish taste of carrots and prunes, acquiring an unusual and unique sound. And the resulting sauce will make any side dish juicy and bright.
