I slightly adapted thie famous Argentine beef stew to be slightly more flavorful...and thus to my liking. The extra cumin seeds, paprika, cayenne, salt and pepper don't take away from the flavor of the meat and vegetables, but they give an added kick that makes this classic family stew extraordinary. We had it at our family reunion, and everyone raved. I hope you enjoy it!

      This was an excellent beef stew. While I didn't like it quite as much as John's Georgian Beef Stew, the plentiful variety of vegetables made it a tasty and pretty healthy for a beef stew. Worth a try this Fall/Winter for sure.

          This sounds excellent and looks delicious! I just bought a new slow cooker after many years of not having one so this is a great recipe to try in it. Bacon is the perfect touch to complement the flavors!

            I don't know what the original recipe looked like, but this one looks flavorful and very unique. I would definitely enjoy this when the autumn season hits where I live-- which usually isn't until October. Saving for the future...

              Ooh, John, I've just saved this in my Slow Cooker recipe tome. I'm growing my own carrots, tomatoes, pumpkins, and cabbages, among other things, so hopefully this stew will make a harvest-laden dinner for us come fall!

                This will surely be even better with home grown veggies, Genevieve. Good luck with the garden!

                John, this looks delish, and very close to some of the Indian flavors I cook with.
