Ingredients

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 1/2 pounds stewing beef trimmed of fat, cut in 1-inch cubes
1 large onion chopped
1 each celery stalk, with leaves, chopped
1 clove garlic minced
1 1/4 cups water boiling
2 cups cranberries fresh
1/2 cup raisins, seedless
1/4 cup walnuts optional
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground
1/4 teaspoon ginger ground
1/4 teaspoon cloves, ground
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper or more to taste

Directions

Heat oil in a large skillet.

Add beef and brown on all sides.

Add onions and celery and sauté until golden brown.

Add garlic and sauté mixture 1 minute longer, stirring constantly.

(Do not let garlic change color.) Stir water into mixture, then add remaining ingredients.

Cover and simmer for 1-1/4 hours, or until beef is tender and liquid is reduced to 1/3 to 1/2 cup.

If pan juice gets too low during cooking, add a little hot water.

Or, if pan juice does not reduce sufficiently, uncover skillet during last 30 minutes of cooking and stir often.

Taste to correct seasonings. Stew goes well with brown rice.
