This classic French dish was inspired by watching one of Anthony Bourdain's show which it featured. I have not cooked this dish in a while so I thought of doing it over the weekend. Simple recipe but requires a lot of time to cook and you can never go wrong with it.
Ingredients:
1 kilo sirloin beef
3 slices of bacon
3 cloves garlic
1 large carrot, chopped
a cup of sliced button mushrooms
1 bottle of red wine
1 cup tomato sauce
1 cup beef stock
salt & pepper to taste
1 to 2 tblspns of flour
In a pot, chop and brown the bacon. Add the beef with a dash of black pepper. Add a bottle of red wine and boil for 10 minutes. Simmer the beef without the lid for 2 hours but be careful the pot does not dry up.
When the wine comes to a reduction of about a third of the pot, add a cup of beef broth, tomato sauce, chopped carrots and mushrooms and let it simmer until the beef is tender. Serve with garlic butter.
