Spezzatino di Manzo

Make sure the meat has sufficient time to cook so that it becomes really tender—you should be able to almost cut through it with a spoon. As with all slow-cooked stews ensure that the meat is of the best possible quality and full of flavor. Keep the heat so low that the liquid around the meat barely moves. If you don’t want to use beef, try lamb or pork instead, or even game, such as wild boar or venison.
