Instructions

Working time approx. 30 minutes; Cooking/baking time approx. 55 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 25 minutes

low-fat yet hearty

Finely dice the onion, slice the bell peppers, and peel and dice the potatoes. Brown the meat in 1 tablespoon of oil, add the onion, and cook until translucent. Add the potatoes and bell peppers and braise briefly. Season with the spices, except for the parsley, and pour in the stock until everything is just covered. Bring to a boil, stir, then cover and simmer over medium heat for 30-45 minutes. Mix the cornstarch with a little water to thicken the stew slightly. Season to taste with more spices, if desired. Serve with chopped parsley and crème fraîche. Tips: For a low-fat version, omit the crème fraîche, and if you want to keep it very low in fat, I always use turkey.
