About Hachee

Hachee is a traditional Dutch beef-and-onion stew built around long, slow cooking. This profile follows a straightforward chuck-beef version thickened with wheat flour and simmered with bay leaf, cloves, beef stock and cider vinegar.

Deeply softened onions give the gravy sweetness and savoury depth, while butter and beef bring richness. Cloves and bay leaf add gentle spice, and cider vinegar keeps the long-cooked sauce pleasantly tangy.

The stew has tender browned beef pieces and soft onion strands suspended in a thick, glossy brown gravy. It is spoonable and substantial, with the onions largely melted into the sauce rather than remaining crisp.
