BRAISED BEEF IN BAROLO

Preparation Method :

• Place the meat in a bowl with the onion, carrot, celery, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Cover with the wine and place in the refrigerator to marinate for 24 hours.
• Drain, reserving the marinade. Strain the marinade, reserving the wine. Tie the meat firmly with kitchen string.
• Heat the oil and butter over medium heat in a heavy- bottomed saucepan just large enough to hold the meat. Add the meat, season with salt, and brown on all sides.
• Pour about half the wine over the meat, cover, and simmer until very tender, 3 hours. Add more wine during cooking, as required.
• Slice the meat and place on a serving dish. Spoon the sauce over the top and serve hot with the garlic mash.
