Italian Beef Stew

Ingredients

1 onion - chopped up finely

2 cloves garlic, diced

1 tablespoon regular oil

1 teaspoon dried Rosemary, finely chopped

1 red pepper, cut into thin strips

1 tablespoon olive oil

500 grams beef, cut into thin strips

1 large tin tomatoes, or 1 kilogram of fresh tomatoes, roasted and finely diced

200 ml vegetable stock or beef stock

Generous handful of olives

Heat the regular oil in a large frying pan. Sweat the onions, garlic and peppers with the rosemary.

Heat the olive oil and brown the beef in a separate pan - or the same one, having set the onions, etc. aside.

Throw in the olives.

Cook for a couple more minutes and serve warm with the parsley sprinkled over.
