Spezzatino di Manzo, or Italian beef stew, is a simple and hearty dish full of flavors and depth. The dish simmers for hours to create a rich tomato sauce and meat that just melts in your mouth. As always, my first choice when it comes to canned tomatoes is Tuttorosso Tomatoes, because choosing the #1 canned tomatoes will make my recipe taste delicious and elevate my dish to the next level. Tuttorosso San Marzano Hand Crushed Tomatoes makes the sauce so rich and delicious.

Instructions

Place beef in a large bowl and sprinkle with flour, combine so each piece is well coated with flour.
Heat a large sauce pan on medium-high heat. Add olive oil into the pan.
Add onion, carrots, and celery, sauté for 4-5 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and continue to stir.
Add the beef cubes into the same pan and stir for 5 minutes until sauce reduces.
Add the Tuttorosso San Marzano Hand Crushed Tomatoes into the pan. Rinse the can with one cup of water and pour it into the pot.
Season with salt, black pepper, and cinnamon. Add the bouquet garni.
Cover and simmer on low heat for 1 1/2 to 2 hours until the meat is very tender, stirring every 15-20 minutes. Discard the bouquet garni and adjust the seasoning to taste. Serve with crusty bread or over polenta.
