Slice the potatoes thickly and cut the onions into half-moons.
Melt the butter in a pot and brown the diced beef for 8 minutes.
Add the onions and cook for 6 minutes until softened.
Add the potatoes, salt, black pepper, and beef stock to the pot.
Cover and cook the stovies over low heat for 38 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
Gently shake the pot and cook for 7 more minutes to reduce the liquid without mashing.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.
💡 Tip: Do not slice the potatoes too thin; slices thicker than half a centimeter hold better and do not melt into mash in the covered pot.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve stovies hot like a pot meal with optional pickled red cabbage and yogurt instead of pickled beetroot.
