BEEF AND MUSHROOMS IN RED WINE SAUCE
This is a great hearty, warming stew ideal for the coming winter months. When the weather starts to get cold I love nothing more than stews and casseroles whether beef, chicken or fish they make great comfort food. I served mine with broccoli florets as we are trying to eat lower carb in the evening.

Steps:
- Cook bacon in a large heavy based saucepan, stirring, until browned, drain on absorbent paper.
- Add oil to a large fry pan, add beef in batches, cooking until browned all over, add beef to saucepan, wipe fry pan clean for later use.
- Return bacon to saucepan along with wine, paste, water, stock, garlic and thyme sprigs to saucepan, bring to the boil, reduce heat, simmer covered for about 21/2-3 hours or until beef is tender.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in the fry pan add shallots, cook until browned and starting to soften, add mushrooms, cook, stirring about 7-8 minutes until mushrooms are soft, remove from heat.
- Add gravy granules to beef mixture stir until sauce thickens slightly (I use the gravy granules to thicken and to add extra beefy flavour, can thicken with cornflour, but may want to adjust stock amount.).
- Stir in parsley and add shallot mushroom mix to the stew, leave on a low heat.
- Meanwhile boil, steam or microwave broccoli until just tender.
- Serve stew accompanied with broccoli.
- Carb Tip: goes well with creamy polenta or mashed potato.
