A comforting stew to help you warm up on those cold days. A spicy Mediterranean stew is the sort of warming, comforting dish that you want when you look out the window and it’s all snow whirling out there. Tajine is welcome in any weather.

For me, beef has to be very well seasoned. In addition, there have to be at least three vegetables in the pot. North African tajines, those long-cooking, rich stews simmered in a clay platter with a conical top, are ideal then. Lacking the traditional tajine setup, you can cook this stew in a large pot set over low heat, and it will be delicious.
