    @Chef Jack Ovens I have come back to this recipe repeatedly and have tweaked the ingredients with great results. I’ve thrown sweet potatoes in the stew, I’ve switched the raisins for dates, and added frozen vegetables to the mix. This spice combo warms up the bland traditional stew making it delectable!

    For people that can't consume alcohol: For me using the combination of grape juice and a little bit of balsamic vinegar replicates the flavor of using red wine in cooking extremely well. Just do not use too much grape juice because of the sugar in it, otherwise the dish can become a bit too sweet. I usually use about half or a third of the amount of wine it says in a recipe. For example if a recipe wants me to use 300ml red wine, I use 100ml-150ml grape juice and balsamic vinegar to taste (usually 1-3 tbsp).

Although I needed to cook the beef about 5 hrs before it started to soften the way I like it. I got threbest greek food ever on an island Leflada GR and this stew is really close to the one which made me lick the plate. Thank you so much for this one and also your straight forwards approach.

    This was a good basis for making it my own. Don't like cinnamon, didn't use it. Don't like bay leaves, didn't add them. Currants... can't get those anywhere here. Rather red wine vinegar we used 6 ounces of our favorite teriyaki marinade and added it at the step you added the vinegar. It gave the stew a nice tang without it being too powerful. Using whole shallots on top of onion in a stew isn't something I had ever considered but they gave the stew a really nice flavor.
