Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Karen Mintzias 1/4 c Dry red wine
1 kg Beef or lamb stew meat 3 Cloves
2 tb Oil or butter 1/4 c Chopped parsley
1 lg Onion; finely chopped Salt
2 Garlic cloves Freshly ground black pepper
1/2 c Chopped celery 1/2 ts Sugar
1 c Chopped, peeled tomatoes 500 g Very young broad beans
1/4 c Tomato paste

Serves: 5-6 Cooking time: 2 to 2-1/2 hours

Trim meat and cut into 3 cm (1-1/4 inch) cubes. Heat half the oil or
butter in a heavy pan and brown meat quickly on each side, adding a
single layer of meat to pan at a time. Remove to a plate when
browned.

Reduce heat, add remaining oil and onion and fry onion gently until
transparent. Add garlic, celery and carrot and fry for a few minutes
longer. Add tomato paste, wine, water, cloves, bay leaf and most of
parsley. Return meat to pan and add salt and pepper to taste and the
sugar. Cover and simmer gently for 45 minutes for lamb, 1-1/4 hours
for beef.

Wash broad beans well, top and tail, pulling off strings at the same
time. Cut into 8 cm (3-inch) lengths. Add to yahni, cover pan and
simmer for further 30-45 minutes or until meat is tender.

Put yahni in a serving dish and sprinkle with remaining parsley.
Serve hot with a tossed salad and crusty bread.

Note: Other vegetables may replace the broad beans; use same quantity
unless otherwise specified.

GREEN BEANS: Top, tail and string if necessary. Slit down centre.
GREEN PEAS: Shell 1 kg (2 lb) green peas and add; 2 cups frozen peas
may be used instead of fresh peas. CELERY: Omit celery from basic
recipe. Cut 1/2 bunch celery into 8 cm (3-inch) lengths and blanch in
boiling, salted water for 5 minutes. Drain and add. ZUCCHINI
(COURGETTES): Top and tail and cut into 1 cm (1/2 inch) slices.
CAULIFLOWER: Break 1 small head cauliflower into florets, soak in
salted water, drain, rinse and add. POTATOES: Peel 750 g (1-1/2 lb)
medium-sized potatoes, quarter and add.
