browned stew with dumplings

March 22nd, 2009

You may not believe you can lose weight while on a diet plan which includes browned stew with dumplings but it is obtainable. It is pivotal to not eat browned stew with dumplings or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.

As an example, I allow myself moderately high calorie food once per week. I eat a healthy diet 6 days a week, say 1500 to 2000 calories a day, and then on the last day, I eat anything – without going overboard of course.

I have been eating this way for the last 6 weeks and it has enabled me to lose 5 kilos. I have not increased my exercise habits or taken any supplements or diet food. I have simply been aware of what I eat on most days and then eat whatever I like one day per week.

I also feel it makes things easier if you have professional support when on a weight loss program and for that I joined the Biggest Loser club. They have numerous tools to enable you to monitor your progress and reach your goals.

Browned Stew with Dumplings

This is an old Amish Mennonite recipe.

2 pounds cubed beef
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons fat (or vegetable oil)
1 small onion, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 cups boiling water
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Cut meat into small cubes.

Melt fat in a hot skillet or Dutch oven. Brown meat and onion in fat, keep it sizzling hot until nicely browned.

Sprinkle flour, salt and pepper over meat. Add the boiling water and lemon juice. Cover the pan and lower the heat so that meat simmers for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.

Dumplings
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon solid shortening
