Beef Bourguignon
French stew featuring tender beef and potatoes braised in red wine with aromatic vegetables and herbs.
Step 1/4
Prepare and Brown Beef
In a small bowl, season beef stew meat with salt and pepper ensuring even coating. Heat olive oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned beef stew meat and cook until browned on all sides, about 4-5 minutes. Remove beef from the pot and set aside.
Step 2/4
Sauté Vegetables and Aromatics
In the same pot, add onions, carrots, mushrooms, and diced potatoes. Sauté until vegetables start to soften, about 4-5 minutes. Stir in minced garlic, tomato paste, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Step 3/4
Combine and Simmer
Return the browned beef stew meat to the pot. Pour in red wine and bring to a simmer for a few minutes, scraping up all the fond at the bottom of the pan. Then add in beef broth with fresh thyme and rosemary, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer gently for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and flavors meld together.
Step 4/4
