Instructions
Pat the beef dry with paper towels, then season with salt and pepper.
Warm the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and sear until each piece is browned and caramelized.
Stir in the carrots, celery, onions, and diced tomatoes, letting the vegetables mingle with the browned bits at the bottom of the pot.
Pour in the beef broth and red wine vinegar, then add the spices. Give everything a good stir, cover, and let it simmer slowly for about 1½ hours, allowing the flavors to deepen and the broth to turn rich and aromatic.
Add the potatoes and continue simmering for another hour, until the beef is tender and the vegetables are soft and hearty.
Ladle the soup into bowls and top with a few lemon slices or a squeeze of fresh juice for a bright, fresh finish. Serve warm with crusty bread and enjoy every cozy spoonful.
