Aproximativ 2 min.
- 5
Working in batches to avoid crowding, sear the beef on all sides until deeply browned.

- 10
If using, pour in the red wine to deglaze the pot, scraping the bottom to release any stuck-on bits, and simmer for 2 minutes.

Return the seared beef and any accumulated juices to the pot.
Aproximativ 1 min.

Add the tomato sauce, beef broth, and the bay leaf, then stir to combine.
