Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound stew beef, cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 4 cups beef broth
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 8 ounces egg noodles
  • 1 cup frozen peas

Instructions

  1. Season the beef pieces with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the beef in batches, removing it to a plate when done.
  3. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.
  4. Return the beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth and add the diced tomatoes, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaf.
  5. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the beef is tender.
  6. Remove the bay leaf. Increase the heat to medium and bring the soup back to a gentle boil.
  7. Add the egg noodles and cook according to package directions, usually 6 to 8 minutes.
  8. Stir in the frozen peas during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  9. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed before serving hot.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use homemade beef broth.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the simmering soup before adding the noodles.
  • This soup freezes well for later meals.
