Instructions
In a large heavy pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
Add the beef to the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Sear until browned on all sides.
In the same pot, add in the chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until the onion is translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute, until fragrant.
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes to enhance the flavor.
Stir in the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce, followed by the white pepper, smoked paprika, and dried rosemary, oregano, and bay leaves.
Cover the pot and let the stew simmer over low heat for about 1 hour, or until the beef is very tender.
Add the potatoes and carrots and continue to simmer for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until they are just tender.
Stir in the frozen green beans, frozen green peas and frozen corn. Let the stew cook for another 8-10 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch in the water to create a slurry. Slowly pour the cornstarch slurry into the stew while stirring continuously. Let the stew simmer for 5 minutes to thicken. If you prefer a thinner broth, use less slurry or leave it out entirely.
Taste test and add more salt & pepper if needed. Remove the bay leaves.
Serve hot with chopped fresh parsley to sprinkle over the top of individual bowls.
