Ingredients

Preparation procedure

  • Sauce base Melt the butter in a pan and sauté the finely chopped onion in it until golden. Add the chopped garlic and fry it briefly until fragrant.
  • Add the meat Cut the beef into smaller pieces and brown it on all sides until golden. Sprinkle in the flour and sauté briefly more – this will create the base for thickening the sauce.
  • Seasoning and wine Pour in the red wine, add the sugar and balsamic vinegar. Let it simmer briefly so the alcohol evaporates and the sauce develops a full flavor.
  • Slow cooking Pour in the beef broth, add the thyme and bay leaf. Reduce the heat and cook for about 30 minutes, until the sauce thickens and the meat becomes tender. Finally, season with salt and freshly ground pepper.
