Ingredients

For The Stew
  • 4½ lbs (2kg) stewing beef, or skirt, or brisket
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (1 oz/25g) butter
  • 1 tbsp flour
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2¼ lbs (1kg) small potatoes
  • 1 bouquet garni
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley
For The Marinade
  • 1 bottle of good red wine
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small carrot
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 shallots, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, chopped
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 5 peppercorns
  • 1 clove

Instructions

Putting It Together
  1. Slice the beef into large cubes and place in a large bowl with all the ingredients for the marinade.
  2. Place in refrigerator until the next day. Easy!
  3. Prepare to cook the beef bourguignon 3 hours before serving.
  4. Drain the meat and dry it with paper towel (It will not brown if it is too wet).
  5. Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan and brown the meat on all sides.
  6. Add the vegetables from the marinade and 2 tablespoons of the butter.
  7. Simmer for 15 minutes.
  8. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir until well blended.
  9. Cover with the marinade.
  10. Bring to the boil.
  11. Add seasoning to your taste.
  12. Add ½ cup (4 fl oz/125 ml) water.
  13. Add the tomato puree, garlic, and bouquet garni.
  14. Cover and simmer for about 2 1/2 hours.
  15. Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water until soft. Serve boiled or creamed.
  16. The stew is served in a bowl and the potatoes served separately.
  17. Garnish with the chopped parsley.
Additions
  1. You could also have polenta (boiled cornmeal, best cooked in chicken stock) instead of the potatoes if you choose, for a change. Absolutely yummy!
  2. Note: You can also cook this in your crockpot once it has been prepared, and if you have some leftover, it can be reheated in your crockpot.
