2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion finely chopped
2 carrots diced
3 cloves garlic minced
1 cup red wine
2 cups beef broth
2 sprigs fresh thyme
1 bay leaf

4 medium potatoes peeled and cubed
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter

Equipment

Method

Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat and sear the beef until golden brown on all sides, then remove and set aside.
In the same pot, add onions, carrots, and garlic; sauté for 5 minutes, then deglaze with red wine.
Return the beef to the pot, add beef broth, thyme, and bay leaf; simmer covered for 2-3 hours.
Boil potatoes until fork-tender, then mash with butter and milk until smooth; season with salt and pepper.
Serve the beef with purée on the side, ladle the sauce over the top, and garnish with herbs.

Notes

Enhance the sauce’s richness by stirring in a teaspoon of Dijon mustard before serving. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze the sauce separately for later use. Experiment with different vegetables in the purée, and don’t forget to salt the beef before searing for deeper flavor.
