4 thick generous slices beef shin, about 700g/1lb 9oz
plain flour, for dusting

2 tsp caster sugar

Steps:

  • Dust the beef in flour, then set aside. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the onions and fry for 5 mins. Add the sugar and cook for 5-10 mins, stirring frequently, until the onions are caramelised. Stir in the garlic for the final few mins.
