    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the beef into large cubes, season generously with salt and pepper, then dredge in the flour, ensuring all sides are coated.

    2

    In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes on all sides until deeply browned. Remove the beef and set aside.

    3

    In the same pot, sauté the finely chopped onions, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and celery stalk until softened and lightly golden.

    4

    Add the tomato paste and cook for another 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in the red wine and let it simmer for a few minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate.

    5

    Return the beef to the pot. Pour in the beef broth. Add the thyme sprigs and bay leaf.

    6

    Cover the pot and simmer over low heat for 2-3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender and the sauce has thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

    7

    Serve the Beef Bourguignon hot with crusty bread, mashed potatoes, or egg noodles.
