Method
- 1
Render diced bacon in a heavy pot until crisp; remove and reserve.
- 2
Pat beef dry; sear in batches in the bacon fat until deeply browned on all sides.
Crowding the pot kills the colour. Take your time.
- 3
Sauté chopped carrot, garlic, and tomato paste until aromatic.
- 4
Return beef and bacon to the pot; pour in red wine and beef broth; add thyme and bay leaf.
- 5
Cover and braise at 160°C for 2.5 hours until beef is fork-tender.
Low and slow — the magic of braising.
- 6
Sauté pearl onions and mushrooms in butter until golden; stir into the stew before serving.
Cook them separately so they keep their texture.
