Method
- Marinade the beef for 24 hours in red wine with the onion, carrot and mix herbs.
- Strain and reserve the red wine.
- Pat the beef dry. To ensure the beef browns separate the beef from the onions and carrots and pat dry.
- Make the stew. First step is cook the beef until brown to ensure maximum flavour.
- Cook the bacon ensuring you get all that tasty bacon fat.
- Next cook your onions, mushrooms and carrots. Cook all until golden.
- Add the tomato paste and cook to take the raw edge off. Then add flour and cook for a minute.
- Add your beef stock slowly while stirring so the flour dissolves easily, no lumps! Then stir the reduced red wine in.
- Finally, add beef, bacon, thyme and bay leaves, then give it a good stir and bring to a simmer. Now, it’s ready to slow-cook.
- Cover pot then place in the oven for 1 hour at 180°C/350°F (160°C fan). Then give it a stir and return to the oven for a final 1½ hours until the beef is tender.
- Serve along side some fluffy mash potato and enjoy your delicious beef bourguignon.
