Ingredients:
3 lbs rump steak, well trimmed
3 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
salt and pepper
1 bay leaf
1 teaspoon oregano, crumbled
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon sugar
120 ml dry white wine
120 ml red wine vinegar
25 boiling onions, peeled (tiny)
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300F/150C/Gas mark 2.
2. Combine all ingredients except 2 tablespoons parsley. Mix very well.
3. Place in a heavy pot that can be covered. Cover tightly and simmer for 2 hours or until the meat is very tender, and the onions have almost disintegrated. Adjust oven temperature during cooking time so contents of pot remain at a simmer. Do not let it boil.
