Spezzatino Reale!

With the help of my aunt, here we are, finally, with our home made spezzatino, the stew. Why reale?  Because this perparation is very tasty and.... simply royal!

Also here there are different variations and different tricks, habits, tastes that brings to different results in the preparation of this recipe.   And also here I'll show you my mother's version, made possible with the help of my aunt, my mother's sister.

Both very good at cooking, they used to prepare certain recipes in a way that really lookded identical...

The stew is one of them, but there are other recipes that I will prepare and show on here.

What is very good about this dish is that once the spezzatino is ready, you can let it cool off and put it in the freezer. When you'll want to taste the spezzatino again, it will be enough to take it out of the freezer, defrost it and cook it for another little bit... Not only the flavour will remain the same, but the further cooking will make it even tastier.  Do NOT freeze the potatoes though, only the meat.

This happened to me quite often when I used to live on my own : my mum would prepare dishes like this and stuff my freezer with them. That would give me weeks of autonomy from fast foods and chinese take away restaurants.
