Spezzatino Reale!

The final result
The final result
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.

Work in progress...
Work in progress...
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.

History

By 1976, Steve Jobs had convinced the product designer Jerry Manock (who had formerly worked at Hewlett Packard designing calculators) to create the "shell" for the Apple II—a smooth case inspired by kitchen appliances that concealed the internal mechanics.[5] The earliest Apple II's were assembled in Silicon Valley, and later in Texas;[8] printed circuit boards were manufactured in Ireland and Singapore. The first computers went on sale on June 10, 1977[9][10] with a MOS Technology 6502 microprocessor running at 1.022,727 MHz (​2⁄7 of the NTSC color carrier), two game paddles[11] (bundled until 1980, when they were found to violate FCC regulations),[12] 4 KiB of RAM, an audio cassette interface for loading programs and storing data, and the Integer BASIC programming language built into the ROMs.

Esther and the Colemans
Kate and John Coleman are rebuilding their troubled marriage. Kate had a drinking problem, but is in therapy and is doing well. She has been sober for one year. The couple decide to adopt a child. When they meet the nine-year-old Russian girl, Esther, at the St. Marina Orphanage, they immediately fall in love with the well-educated orphan. Their young son, Daniel, is hostile to his new sister; but their deaf daughter, little Max, is enchanted with her - at first. Eventually, Kate begins to feel that Esther is manipulative and possibly even psychologically disturbed. John refuses to listen to his wife's misgivings, and the wounds in their marriage reopen. Kate calls Sister Abigail at the orphanage, and the nun informs her that Esther has a troubled and mysterious history. Kate delves further into Esther's past and discovers she is not all she pretends to be.
