Cozy Vietnamese Beef Stew
This aromatic beef stew is ideal for crisp fall evenings or cold winter nights. Tender grass-fed beef chuck mingles with fragrant lemongrass, star anise, cinnamon, and makrut lime leaves in a rich coconut broth. Carrots add sweetness alongside fiber with low-carbohydrate energy.

Why It's Perfect for the Season:
• Warm spices like star anise and cinnamon lend quintessential fall/winter coziness
• Hearty beef and veggies provide soul-satisfying sustenance
• The lemongrass-lime aroma evokes tropical vibes to brighten gloomy days

Serving Tip:
Pair with rice or a crisp baguette for soaking up the aromatic broth. Top with fresh herbs like Thai basil, mint, and cilantro, plus sliced chilies for punchy contrast.
