Super Simple Stewed Beef

There's really nothing to this recipe. You need very few ingredients to make this stewed beef.  It's simple and delicious!

This is what it looks like when it's done. Not too much liquid left.

Super Simple Stewed Beef
Makes 6 servings

Ingredients
  • 2 lbs stewing beef or veal, cubed

  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 bay leaves
