Mod de preparare

Pas cu pas

1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
Aproximativ 5 min.
2
Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat.
Aproximativ 1 min.
3
Sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch, then remove the beef and set aside.
Aproximativ 12 min.
Nota bucătarului: Do not overcrowd the pot; browning in batches ensures a good sear and prevents steaming.
4
Add the chopped yellow onion to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
Aproximativ 5 min.
5
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Aproximativ 1 min.
Nota bucătarului: Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it can turn bitter.
6
Pour in the red wine and scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, letting it simmer for 2-3 minutes to reduce slightly.
Aproximativ 3 min.
7
Return the seared beef to the pot, then add the crushed tomatoes, beef broth, pearl onions, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, whole cloves, and dried oregano.
Aproximativ 2 min.
8
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and cook for at least 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender.
Aproximativ 2 ore 30 min.
Nota bucătarului: Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
9
Remove the cinnamon stick, bay leaves, and whole cloves before serving.
Aproximativ 1 min.
10
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Aproximativ 1 min.
