This dish is a bit time-consuming to make, but it's worth the effort. The flavors are amazing and the meat is fall-apart tender. I highly recommend it.

I'm not a huge fan of stews, but this one is an exception. The beef is so tender and the sauce is so flavorful. I even went back for seconds!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beef. I usually make a big batch of beef stew on the weekend, and then I use the leftovers to make this dish during the week. It's a quick and easy meal that's still very flavorful.
