Cook safely

Keep children and pets away from the hob and the oven, and keep oven gloves and a lid within reach.

  • Hot oil. Never put water on an oil fire: turn off the heat and cover the pan with a lid or a damp tea towel. Pat food dry before it goes into hot oil, and lower it in gently, away from you.
  • Boiling water and steam. Turn pan handles inward, away from the edge of the hob. Lift lids away from you, and pour hot water away from your body: steam burns too.
  • Sharp knives. Cut on a board that doesn't slip (a damp cloth under it helps), and curl the fingers of the hand that holds the food.

Method

  1. The preliminary frying of the vegetables for this dish makes all the difference to it and gives it a flavour quite apart from that of an ordinary "stew." Clean and peel the following vegetables and then cut them into slices : three medium-sized carrots, three onions, and several tomatoes.
  2. Place them in an earthenware stewpan and fry them in olive oil — or butter, if you prefer it — until almost cooked.
  3. Meanwhile you should have browned your beef for a few minutes in butter.
  4. Add the meat to the vegetables, and then one tumblerful of cold water, salt and pepper.
  5. Let the ragout simmer gently for at least one hour and a half, keeping the lid on the pan.
