Ingredients:

Serving

1.5 kgs good stewing beef ,largecubes ,--chuck or blade
1 tbsp sweet hungarian paprika
1 tps white pepper
2 tbsp plain flour
425 g can crushed tomatoes ,or similar chopped fresh tomatoes
2 cloves garlic crushed
1 stick celery ,finely chopped
3 carrots .chopped
4 onions ,chopped
1 large potato ,finely chopped --will help in the thickening
1 cup red wine
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Heat your oven to 180C
Use a plastic zip lock bag and toss your cubed meat with the flour ,white pepper and paprika till well dusted .
Place the floured meat in a heavy covered casserole dish -I use cast iron but thats up to you .
Now add the tomato ,wine and all the vegetables ,stirring well to mix.
If the mix doesn't come to the top of your chosen dish ,I then cover with a greased kitchen paper or baking sheet .
Cook undisturbed for 1 and a half hours ,then test for seasonings and tenderness .I sometimes need to cook a bit longer if the meat needs it .
I serve this on mashed potato or with Irish Colcanon -its delicious served with a creamy garlicky polenta too.
I sometimes add fresh herbs to the cooking ,thyme especially .But I find the rich beef flavour needs little addition whenusing prime organic beef like we raise here .
A good Napa Valley red would seem to be the final ingredient to your meal -remember the glass you used in the cooking ?-drink the rest and enjoy !!
