Swedish Beef Stew (Kalops ) image

The recipe title comes from the English word 'collops' (meaning pieces of beef).

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 lb beef chuck steak
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
2 large carrots, peeled and sliced into rounds or chunks
2 medium onions, chopped
2 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp veal stock or beef stock
2 bay leaves
10 whole allspice berries
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 cup red wine
32 oz beef stock (amount is approximate)
1 tsp salt
5 white peppercorns (or about 1 1/2 tsp white pepper)

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the beef into 1/2-inch cubes, and dry the beef cubes with a paper towel (which helps to ensure even browning). Toss the cubed beef with flour to coat on all sides.
  • 2. Heat the oil and butter in a Dutch oven or stockpot over medium heat. Add the beef, and sauté for about 5 minutes or until beef is evenly browned on all sides.
  • 3. Add the carrots, onions, garlic, veal/beef stock, bay leaf and allspice berries. Sauté for a few minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 4. Stir in 2 Tbsp flour. Pour in the red wine and enough beef stock to just cover the beef. Add salt and 5 white peppercorns (or 1 to 1 1/2 tsp white pepper), adjusting salt and pepper to taste.
  • 5. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the stockpot, and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours or until the beef is cooked and tender, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Skim off fat, if needed.
  • 6. Ladle onto plates, and serve with boiled potatoes and pickled red beets.

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 pound beef stew meat (chuck) cut into 2-inch cubes
Salt to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 can (14.5-ounce) reduced-sodium beef broth
7-8 whole allspice berries
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup Wondra flour or all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup milk
Mashed potatoes for serving

Steps:

  • Season beef generously with salt and pepper.
  • Select Sauté on the pressure cooker and add oil and butter to the pressure cooking pot. When butter is melted, brown the meat in batches for about 5 minutes per batch until all meat is browned on all sides. Do not crowd the pot. Transfer to a plate.
  • Add the onion to the pot. Sauté for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened.
  • Stir in a small amount of the beef broth to deglaze the pot. Be sure and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pot. Add the remaining broth and return the beef and any juices to the pot.
  • Add the allspice and bay leaves. Lock the lid in place. Select High Pressure and 15 minutes cook time.
  • When the cook time ends, allow the pressure to release naturally for 10 minutes before finishing with a quick pressure release. When the valve drops, carefully remove the lid. Remove and discard the bay leaves and allspice.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the flour and cold water until smooth. Add 1/2 cup of the hot broth to the flour mixture and stir to combine, then add the flour and broth mixture to the pressure cooking pot.
  • Select Sauté and bring the gravy to a boil, stirring constantly, until thickened and there's no more raw flour taste. Stir in the milk. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve over mashed potatoes.

GREAT-GRANDMA ELLEN'S SKåNSK KALOPS (SWEDISH BEEF STEW) RECIPE - (3.5/5)



Great-grandma Ellen's Skånsk kalops (Swedish beef stew) Recipe - (3.5/5) image

Provided by á-39535

Number Of Ingredients 7

1.5 #'s of stew beef
2 carrots
1 onion
2-4 potatoes
water, flour, whole allspice, bay leaves and salt
You can substitute ground allspice for the whole berry
12 whole berries = about 1 t ground.

Steps:

  • Cut beef into stew size pieces. Chop onion and carrots. The carrots should be chopped pretty thick. Fry beef and onion in a pot with some butter/oil until beef has gotten lightly browned. Pour a thin layer of flour over the beef and onion, stir. Pour in water so that it just covers the beef . Season with about 1.5-2 teaspoons of salt, 10-15 whole allspice and 5-7 bay leaves then add the carrots. Let simmer under lid for at least 1,5 hours. I prefer to let it simmer about 2-3 hours. Taste stew a few times while it simmers to check if additional seasoning is needed, or extra water needs to be added. Peel and boil potatoes. Add boiled potatoes just before serving.
