Number Of Ingredients 23

2.2 pounds (1 kilogram) good quality beef or Charolais beef, cut into 2-inch pieces.
1 (750ml) bottle Burgundian wine, like Pinot Noir
2 large stalks celery, roughly chopped
2 fresh bay leaves
Pinch fresh thyme
2 large carrots, roughly chopped
2 large onions, peeled and quartered
1 bulb garlic, unpeeled and cut horizontally
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
2 ounces (50 grams) butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
8 ounces (200 grams) smoked bacon, pancetta or lardons, chopped into small dices
4 shallots, peeled and roughly chopped
3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Salt and pepper
Mashed potatoes, recipe follows
6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
1/2 cup (1/4 pint) double (heavy) cream
2 1/2 ounces (75 grams) butter
A handful chives
A handful parsley
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Place the beef in a large bowl and add all the marinade ingredients. Cover and marinade for at least 8 hours or preferably overnight, refrigerated.
  • Drain off the liquid from the marinade and reserve. Remove the peppercorns, onions, and garlic. Separate vegetables from the meat. Dry the meat thoroughly on paper towels.
  • Heat a heavy bottomed saucepan. Add the butter and oil, then add in the beef. Cook over a high heat until seared all over, then remove from the pan and keep warm. Add the lardons and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until golden. Add the shallots and cook until they just begin to soften. Stir in all the marinade vegetables, and cook for a further 3 to 4 minutes. Return the meat to the pan and season generously with salt and pepper and stir in the mustard until all the ingredients are coated generously. Pour in the reserved marinade liquid and bring to a gentle bubble. Cover with a lid and cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, the sauce should be thick and the meat tender. You may need to add a little water half way through the cooking process. Serve with mashed potatoes.
  • Cook the potatoes in salted boiling water for 12 to 15 minutes until tender.
  • Heat the cream and butter together until the butter is thoroughly melted. Blanch the herbs in boiling salted water 2 to 3 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly under very cold water until completely cooled. Place blanched herbs in a blender and puree. Slowly add the olive oil, while the motor is still running, to form a smooth puree.
  • Mash the potatoes, then add butter and cream. Stir thoroughly until you have a smooth paste. Finally fold in herb puree and season generously. Mix well to form a green smooth mash.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The beef was tender and the sauce was flavorful. However, I found that the dish was a bit too heavy for my taste.

The beef was a bit tough, even after cooking it for the recommended time. I think I'll try braising it for longer next time.

This dish was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of salt next time.

I've tried many beef bourguignon recipes over the years, but this one is definitely my favorite. The meat was fork-tender and the sauce was so flavorful and complex. I served it over egg noodles and it was the perfect meal for a cold winter night.
