Boeuf Bourguignon



OK, the beef recipe is a little different from the classic recipe. I know it is not good to tamper with classic tried and tested recipes but I wanted to just try something different and it worked beautifully!

Ingredients:

Beef chuck cut into 2" cubes
Thyme, chopped
Bay leaf
Butter
Onion, chopped
Garlic, chopped
Heavy Cream (this is the additional ingredient)
Red Wine
Sherry(also additional ingredient)
  • Add butter to a pan and add the onions and garlic.
  • once the onions are slightly brown add the thyme, bay leaf and the beef.
  • Once the beef is nearly done add the wine and sherry to deglaze the pan.
  • Once the beef is fully cooked add the heavy cream.
  • You need to be careful with the heavy cream. Make sure that the pan is off the heat once the heavy cream is mixed. Otherwise the cream will curdle.


The final beef!

This was really yummy! Goes really well with bread and even rice.
