Good morning my friends and happy Sunday, let’s create a special traditional food for today that you will love it , as always together step by step

Ingredients

1,300gr. about calf olive or scallop, in pieces
1 cup olive oil
2 sliced onions
1 kg onions stew (bones)
1 teaspoon sugar soup
3-4 grains of allspice
1 cinnamon stick
a few whole peppercorns
a little grated clove
2 bay leaves
1½ cup of coffee vinegar
1 teaspoon red wine
2 canned crushed tomatoes
salt, freshly ground pepper

Preparation

Boil the meat in a saucepan with plenty of water that will cover it well, for at least 1 hour, until soft. Skim it in between and then drain it and keep its broth aside.

Meanwhile, prepare the onions: Bring water to a boil and pour over the bones. Leave them for a while and then drain them and clean them easily and without tears. Let them drain.

Heat half the olive oil in a wide and shallow saucepan and add the onions and round onions. Saute until lightly browned. Sprinkle with sugar and sauté a little more. Add the spices (cinnamon, cloves, allspice, peppers, bay leaf), turn them a little together with the onions to smell and put the meat in the pot together with the rest of the oil. Saute for 3-4 minutes and quench the food with the vinegar and wine.

When the alcohol evaporates, add the tomato, salt and pepper and a little of the meat broth. Boil until the meat is well cooked and left with a nice rich sauce. Serve the stew on plates or on a serving platter, accompanied by french fries or another garnish of your choice. Combines perfectly with a white spaghetti pasta

Stay safe and healthy my friends and take care of your people

My best wishes from Greece
