For richer flavor, brown the beef in a skillet before adding it to the Dutch oven.
If you don't have a Dutch oven, a large, oven-safe pot with a tight-fitting lid will work.
Adjust the amount of red wine to your preference.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as parsnips or turnips, to the stew.
For a thicker stew, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water and stir into the stew during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
To make this in a slow cooker, combine all ingredients except the peas in the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. Add peas during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
