firesprite Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I am assuming olive oil is fine, since various other oils are. I checked the program rules and the rest of the posts here and couldn't see it specifically mentioned anywhere. I wanted to make this really yummy stew recipe: 2 x carrots 2 x sticks of celery. 1 x red onion and two sprigs of rosemary (is rosemary ok?) olive oil Fry up the above mentioned ingredients til caramelized. Add 500grams of lamb. (recipe calls for one tbsp. of flour which I shall leave out - I am assuming that's not ok). Cook til browned. Add a can of diced tomatoes. Stew for as long as possible so meat is really tender. Leaving out 2 cups of red wine (for obvious reasons). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vian Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 If the recipe calls for red wine, don't just leave it out, replace it with beef or chicken stock if you have it. the recipe likely needs the liquid to make it "stew-like" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
praxisproject Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 If you want some red colour and you're using stock, you can add tomato to some recipes, but it's an acid, so be careful not to ruin the recipe's balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
