Beef Burgundy Simplified
From menus4moms.com...this is a great fall/winter meal.
Steps
Lightly brown the onions in the oil and remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
Pat meat cubes dry between paper towels and brown on all sides in the same pot without crowding.
Sprinkle browned meat with flour , salt , and pepper.
Add wine , garlic , stock , tomato sauce and herbs.
Over heat bring the mixture to a simmer and then cook it , tightly covered for two or more hours or until the meat is fork tender.
Add the onions after one hour.
Meanwhile , wipe the mushrooms with a damp cloth and trim off stem ends.
Quarter mushrooms if large , leave small ones whole.
Heat the butter and remaining part of oil in a large skillet and lightly saute the mushrooms for about 4 minutes and set aside.
When meat is done , skim off any fat and add the mushrooms.
If the sauce is too thin , combine 2 tb flour with 1 / 2 cup water and whisk the mixture into boiling beef burgundy.
Serve over egg noodles.
