Notes

Brown the meat in batches to ensure proper searing.
Caramelizing onions slowly enhances their sweetness and flavor, so don’t rush that step.
Feel free to make this dish ahead; the flavors deepen with time.
For variations, try adding mushrooms or swapping the beef for a leaner cut. Consider mashed potatoes instead of the bread topping for a twist!
