Equipment

  • Oven

Ingredients

  • 1.5 kg Beef shoulder chuck or blade, slice into thick steaks
  • Olive oil or extra virgin olive oil - a good slug
  • 500 g brown onion finely diced
  • 500 g finely diced celery
  • 500 g carrot super finely diced
  • 6 garlic cloves peeled and crushed
  • 60 ml Italian aged balsamic vinegar
  • 200-250 g of tomato paste
  • 500-600 ml approx of passata or sugo
  • A bottle 750 ml full-bodied Italian red wine, such as a Chianti
  • A small handful of Italian flat-leaf parsley

Instructions

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pan and add onion, carrot and celery and fry gently for approximately 5 – 8 minutes. They must be soft and aromatic. You’re creating the base of a beautiful dish. Don’t rush things.
  • Add the garlic and fry for a further 1 minute to infuse the flavours.
  • Add the vinegar to help with a little magical depth & zing as well as lifting the wonderful base flavours up from the pan.
  • Create little ‘pockets’ amongst the cooking aromatics and add the beef. Salt both sides and cook to seal on both sides.
  • Add the tomato paste and stir through to combine.
  • Add the passata or sugo and stir to combine.
  • Add the wine and simmer gently to allow the alcohol to evaporate a little.
  • Stir in the roughly chopped parsley.
  • Cover with a lid or double layer of foil on 160oC. Simmer for anywhere between 3-6 hours preferably in your oven, but the stove top will suffice. Your beef is ready when the beef will pull apart/ shred with two forks, with ease.
