Ingredients

1-1/2 pound Round beef, cubed

Salt and black pepper to taste

2 Tbs. Olive oil

1 Tbs. Butter

4 – 6 Cloves garlic crushed and minced fine

3 Stalks green onions sliced thin

8 oz. Thinly sliced baby-bella (Cramini) mushrooms

½ cup Dry white wine or beer

1 tsp. Dried thyme

1 qt. beef stock

½ cup dry white wine or beer

¾ cup pearl barley

½ tsp. kosher salt

½ tsp. black pepper

1 tsp dried mushroom powder (optional)

Directions

Season the beef with salt and pepper to taste and brown in a 3 qt. stock pot with 1 Tbs. of the olive oil.

When the beef is browned set it aside for later. Add 1 Tbs. olive oil and one Tbs. butter to the pot and stir fry the garlic and green onion for a bit and then add the mushrooms. Continue to cook the mushrooms until they are wilted and releasing their moisture (about 6 minutes).

Add the wine or beer to the mushrooms and deglaze over medium heat reducing until there is just a little liquid left (about 6 minutes).

Add the browned beef, thyme, beef stock, wine or beer, barley, salt, pepper and mushroom powder.

[The powder is optional. I make mine in a dehydrator with portabella mushrooms. but it can be found online and at some nicer markets.]

Give this a good swirl and return to a simmer. let it simmer for 45 minutes or until the barley is tender.

Serve with croutons.
