Step 1

Sear the Beef: After patting it dry, season it with salt and pepper. In a pot, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. In batches, sear the meat for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until browned. Take out and put aside.

Step 2

Sauté Aromatics: Put the celery, carrots, onion, and garlic in the same pot. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Deglaze with Wine: For added flavour, pour in red wine while scraping out the fond, or browned pieces. Simmer for 5 minutes to gently decrease.

Step 4

Stew Slowly: Put the beef back in the pot. Add the bay leaves, tomato paste, thyme, and beef broth. The meat should be fork-tender after 2 to 2.5 hours of simmering on low heat with a lid on. Adding mushrooms in the final half hour is optional.

Step 5

Combine 1 tablespoon flour: With 2 tablespoons stew liquid to thicken the sauce, then whisk it back in. Simmer until thickened, uncovered, for 10 minutes.

Step 6

To serve and garnish: Throw away the bay leaves. Serve with mashed potatoes or crusty toast and garnish with fresh parsley.
