Zharkoye is a hearty Ukrainian stew made by slowly cooking cubed beef with potatoes, carrots, and onion. It travels well in jars or lidded containers, making it a good option for outdoor gatherings.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Sear the beef

8 min

Sear the cubed beef over high heat for 8 minutes, until browned on all sides.

2

Add the vegetables

5 min

Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the potatoes, carrots, bay leaf, and a little water.

3

Simmer

22 min

Cover the stew and cook over low heat for 22 minutes, until the vegetables are tender.

Reminder

Sear the beef over high heat first; otherwise, it may release its juices too early and become tough. Remove the bay leaf before serving. This recipe contains no nuts because none are used.
