- Salt preferred cut of meat and let sit in fridge while you do the following:
- Roughly chop celery, carrots, shallots, garlic
- In a large pot, drizzle olive oil generously in med/high heat
- Brown meat on all sides, I like to create a crust
- Take out meat and let rest in bowl
- Dump all your veggies in the pot, let brown and soften
- I eye ball salt, pepper, garlic powder, and a dash or two of Worcestershire or soy sauce
- Add tomato paste, about 2 tablespoons, stir for about a couple minutes
- Add your choice of wine, beer or whiskey. If wine or beer you can add a cup or so, if whiskey add about a shot or two. Stir and let the flavors marry for a couple min
- I added a tablespoon of beef bouillon, I love the beefiness flavor but this is optional, you could use need broth too
- Add thyme, rosemary
- Add your beef back to the pot
- Pour water till your meat is slightly covered.
- Forget about it for 3 hours or so on low heat, make sure its simmering
- After meat is tender, take out meat and set aside in bowl or whatever
- Strain broth so that all you have left is broth, no veggies
- Add broth to pot or pan let simmer, add a couple tbspoons of butter whisk to thicken
- Add meat back to sauce. It should be gravy like now
- In pan add a cup of heavy cream, let it simmer, add few chunks of butter, add salt pepper garlic and chopped chives and dill
- Separately I grate parmesan and whatever cheese I have like gruyere.
- Once my mash is ready, I add the creamer and cheese and fold.
- Make yourself a plate
