    Recipe Introduction



    Howdy

    I'm from Brighton, Australia, and we're currently heading into Autumn
    so keep those casserole recipes coming in - we're gonna need them to
    keep warm. I love beef with a red wine sauce so this is one of my
    favourite recipes. Hope you like it. I had to leave my cat, Vivian,
    with my mum after I bought my house cause of separation anxiety - my
    mums not my cat, so we've become a holiday camp for friend's pets.

    List of Ingredients




    Serves 4. Best prepared the day before.

    butter
    100g bacon, chopped
    2 onions, peeled, halved and chopped
    3 cloves garlic, peeled and sliced
    2 carrots, peeled and sliced thickly
    15 spring onion bulbs, trimmed
    sprigs of thyme
    1 fresh bay leaf
    springs of flat-leafed parsley
    1kg boned beef shin shank, cubed
    1 tbs tomato paste
    1 cups beef stock
    1 cup red wine
    button mushrooms, cooked in butter

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 100C. Heat a little butter over medium heat in a
    heavy based casserole until foaming, add the bacon and chopped onion
    and fry until softened. Add the garlic, and cook for a further
    minute, then stir in the carrots, baby onions and herbs, and stir for
    about 3 minutes. Add the meat and tomato paste stir to distribute
    evenly, cover and cook over low heat for about 10 minutes. Meanwhile,
    in a separate saucepan bring the stock and red wine to the boil. Pour
    the liquid over the meat, stir, then transfer the covered casserole to
    the preheated oven for about 3-4 hours. About 10 minutes before
    serving, transfer to stove top, add the mushrooms and simmer until the
    sauce thickens slightly. To reheat, place the casserole in a 150C
    oven.
