This is a delicious rustic and authentic winter Greek dish, made with braised beef stew & sweet onions. It's one of the most favorite dishes for Greek people. The word Stifado comes from the ancient Greek word tifos meaning steam. Originally the recipe was brought to Greece in the 13th century by Venetians. It's the perfect dish for the winter months & Sunday special family lunch.
That's where Stifado becomes the table's center piece with Salad, Fries & good strong red wine! A great serving idea would be to present Stifado in small Terracotta dishes, adding to the whole rustic, country experience.
This dish can be made w/a variety of meats, like rabbit, beef & even octopus! However, Onions are quite important in this recipe, so look out for a tip how to easily clean them and not cry!

600 gr. Beef Lean Rump Steak (boneless)

400 gr. tin Tomato blocks with basil
100 ml. Strong Red Wine (like Xinomavro)
50 ml. White Vinegar
1/2 tsp. Ground Nutmeg

Μοσχάρι Στιφάδο
Σερβίρει 3-4 άτομα
Πρόκειται για ένα νόστιμο, αυθεντικό χειμερινό ελληνικό πιάτο, φτιαγμένο με μοσχαρίσιο κρέας και γλυκά κρεμμύδια. Είναι ένα από τα πιο αγαπημένα πιάτα για τους Έλληνες. Η λέξη Στιφάδο προέρχεται από την αρχαία ελληνική λέξη τύφος που σημαίνει ατμός. Αρχικά η συνταγή ήρθε στην Ελλάδα τον 13ο αιώνα από τους Ενετούς. Είναι το τέλειο πιάτο για τους χειμερινούς μήνες και ένα ξεχωριστό μεσημεριανό γεύμα της Κυριακής για την οικογένεια. Εκεί το Στιφάδο γίνεται το κεντρικό σημείο του τραπεζιού με σαλάτα, φρέσκες τηγανιτές πατάτες και καλό δυνατό κόκκινο κρασί! Μια όμορφη ιδέα σερβιρίσματος θα ήταν να σερβίρετε το Στιφάδο σε μικρά πήλινα πιάτα, προσφέροντας έτσι όλη την ρουστίκ, χωριάτικη εμπειρία.
Αυτό το πιάτο μπορεί να γίνει με μια ποικιλία κρεάτων, όπως κουνέλι, βοδινό κρέας και ακόμη και το χταπόδι! Τα κρεμμύδια είναι πολύ σημαντικά σε αυτή τη συνταγή, οπότε κοιτάξτε και την συμβουλή μου πώς να τα καθαρίσετε εύκολα χωρίς να κλάψετε!
Υλικά:
600 γρ. Μοσχαρίσιο κρέας (Σπάλα ή Ελιά από μοσχαράκι γάλακτος)
1 kg. Κρεμμύδια μικρά (κοκκάρια)
1-2 σκελίδες σκόρδο
Αλατοπίπερο
1 φρέσκια ώριμη Ντομάτα ψιλοκομμένη
1 κ.σ. Τοματοπολτός (πουρέ)
400 γρ. κονσέρβα ντοματάκια σε μπλόκς με βασιλικό
100 ml. δυνατό κόκκινο κρασί όπως Ξινόμαυρο
50 ml. Λευκό ξύδι
1/2 κ.γ. μοσχοκάρυδο
1 & 1/2 κ.γ. Μπαχάρι
Ελαιόλαδο ή άλλο λάδι για το μαγείρεμα
1 & 1/2 κ.σ. Ζάχαρη
2-3 φύλλα Δάφνης

Notes
Leg of lamb with the bone in is great for this recipe however boneless lamb works too. Use whatever you have. Beef is a good substitute.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator or freeze for up to 2 months.
