Ingredients and Preparation
| Ingredients | Measures |
|---|
| Olive oil | 2 + 2 teaspoons |
| Beef round eye, visible fat removed and sliced into ¼-inch thick pieces | 1 pound |
| Salt | 2 dashes + ½ teaspoon |
| Freshly ground pepper | 2 dashes |
| Pale ale or light beer | 10 ounces |
| Water | 4 ounces |
| Beef bouillon cube | 1 |
| Yukon Gold potatoes (1 pound), peeled and sliced crosswise into ⅛ to ¼-inch thick pieces | 2-3 |
| Sweet potatoes (1 pound), peeled and sliced crosswise into ⅛ to ¼-inch thick pieces | 1-2 |
| Yellow onions, sliced | 3 |
| Fresh parsley, chopped | ¼ cup |
Directions
- Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add half of the meat and brown on both sides. Season with a dash of salt and pepper, and transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining meat.
- Pour beer and water into the skillet and add the bouillon cube. Scrape brown bits off the bottom of the pan and then transfer the pan juices to a bowl with a pour spout or a large measuring cup.
- Add the rest of the oil to the skillet and cook the onions for 2-3 minutes.
- In a Dutch oven or large pot, layer ½ of the potatoes, the meat, the onions, and then the remaining potatoes (ie, begin and end with the potatoes). Season the top layer of potatoes with the remaining ½ teaspoon of salt and add the reserved pan juices.
- Cover and cook over low heat until the potatoes are soft and the meat is tender, about 45 minutes. Garnish with parsley and serve.
