To burn it off
Stoofvlees, or carbonnade flamande in French, is beef stewed for hours in dark Belgian beer with onions. A slice of bread spread with mustard goes in the pot and melts into the sauce.
A bowl is 520 kcal, with 40 g of protein, 30 g of fat and 20 g of carbs. That's the stew on its own.
In Belgium it comes with fries. A medium portion is 320 kcal, so the plate is 840, and a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the side makes it 940.
Tips
- 1Have it with boiled potatoes or bread instead of fries.
- 2Skip the mayonnaise, the sauce is rich enough.
- 3Use a lean cut and skim the fat off the pot when it's cool.
