Stew you!

Slowly but surely, delicious.

Method

Use a good quality pot.
Brown the beef in 2 batches with a tablespoon of olive oil.
Add another tablespoon of olive oil and then the rosemary, thyme, onion, celery and garlic.
Add the tomatoes and red wine and cook for about 7 minutes until reduced.
Put the beef back in and add the stock.
Simmer partially covered for about 90 minutes.
Add the vegetables and simmer until they are cooked and then continue to simmer for as long as you can, as the beef will grow more tender, keeping the stock level to just above the ingredients.
Add the parsley just before you serve.

Ingredients

  • 900 g of chuck steak, cubed
  • 2 nice and red tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 large brown onions - chopped into large-ish pieces
