Burgundy Beef

Burgundy Beef



INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup olive oil
3 pounds top round, cubed
3 cups full-bodied red wine
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon thyme
1 bay leaf
Salt


TO PREPARE:

In a large stockpot, heat oil. Add beef and brown evenly on all sides. Add wine, broth, tomato paste, garlic, thyme, bay leaf and salt. Bring to a boil. Cover and simmer for 2-1/2 to 3 hours, until beef is tender and liquid is thickened.

If broth needs additional thickening, mix 3 tablespoons water with 1 to 2 tablespoons flour and whisk until smooth. Add to stew and stir.
