03 — Method

  1. Marinate the 4 cm (1½ in) beef cubes in the red wine with the garlic, bouquet garni and carrots for 12 hours.
  2. Drain the beef, reserving the marinade, and sear it in the Dutch oven with a little oil for 10 minutes.
  3. Sprinkle the flour over the meat and stir for 2 minutes to cook it — it will thicken the sauce.
  4. Add the strained marinade and enough water to cover, and tuck in the bouquet garni.
  5. Cover and cook in the oven at 160 °C (325 °F) for 3 hours until fork-tender.
  6. In the large skillet, brown the lardons, pearl onions and mushrooms separately.
  7. Add this garnish to the pot 20 minutes before the end so it soaks up the sauce.
