#55 Beef Burgundy I

Taken from Allrecipes.com


Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 pounds round steak, cut into small pieces
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 1/2 cups dry red wine
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram, crushed
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 1/2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 3 onions, sliced

Directions

  1. In a large stock pot over medium/high heat, heat the oil and add the beef pieces. Sprinkle the flour over the beef. Brown the meat on all sides.
  2. Pour in broth and red wine. Sprinkle in salt, marjoram, thyme and black pepper.
  3. Bring to a boil. Cover, and reduce heat. Simmer for 1 1/2 hours or until beef is tender, stirring occasionally.
  4. Add mushrooms and onions to the pot. Liquid should just cover everything. If necessary, add some more wine to cover. Cook until onions are limp.

Recipe serves 7.

Taste: 5/5  I served this with cheesy mashed  potatoes and brussels sprouts for Christmas Eve and it was very good.  I used beef stock in place of the red wine.

Brit-rating: GREAT-ed it.  "You need to make this again soon."

Leftoverability: 1/5  This did not make a good leftover.  It gelled up and was kind of fatty-like.  To be honest, I tossed it.

Make for guests:  Yes, this would be a great main.  The mashed potatoes went well with it.  I just put a little cheese and parsley on them and baked for about 5-10 mins, until the cheese melted.  You could also put this over rice.
