“My husband’s family often cooked dinner and called it Kokkinisto.

I never really knew what the word meant exactly, I just thought it was some sort of cooked meat.

koh-kee-nee-STOH means the meat has been reddened. It is a way of cooking and the meat is browned before adding to a stew made with a tomato-based sauce. Any red sauces are John’s families specialty!”

NOTES

• Traditionally, the whole point of this recipe is to brown the meat. However we don’t always have time to pull out a fry pan and/or we prefer to skip the extra washing up. So it’s ok to skip step 1.
• Do what you prefer and what you have time for as either way it turns out a soft, delicious meal.
• To hide the veggies a bit more, chop them using speed 5 at step 2.
• Serve with a side of rice or add some pasta in the last step to make it more like a soup. Or add the meat to a pan with some rissoni and cook in the oven at 100 degrees, for about 20 minutes until it becomes golden and the rissoni cooks through.
