Meat Stew with Potatoes

Special dressing: Tina Turner (turn player on)

It tasted as good as it looks, … mmmmm. One of the kitchen smells I like the most is the Stew one, it stays in the air and it reminds me of winter days, steamy windows, and cold outside. It’s a lovely sensation smelling and eating such tender meat and of course the potatoes… It’s so easy to perform, you can do it this way or simply puting all ingredients inside a casserole and adding the potatoes at the end will also be a great dish!

•After that time, take the meat aside and convert all veggies into a thick sauce. Use some of the garlic cloves too.
