With the chilly weather upon us, its time to enjoy some delicious soups and stews that warm the soul. I have used my favourite flavour pastes to bring a non traditional flavour to our family Greek Stew recipe made with Butter Beans, Mushroom and Beef Tenderloin.

This stew is spiced with Entube’s Harissa Chilli paste for a warm and delicious hug. Serve with dried chilis for an extra added kick too fight off the winter chill and serve with your favourite crusty bread for dipping in the juices.
