One Pot Oven Baked Beef

• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup plain flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt (or more if you wish)
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper (freshly ground)
• 3 bay leaves
• 3 sprigs thyme (fresh)
• 1 kg lean beef (cubed)
• 3 garlic cloves (large, minced or 3 teaspoons of jarred garlic)
• 1 carrot (medium sliced)
• 1 onion (large fine sliced but I do chunky)
• 6 new potatoes (small halved optional)
• 2 celery ribs (sliced optional)
• 1 cup red wine
• 1 cup beef stock
• 2 tablespoons parsley (fresh finely chopped)

1. Preheat oven to 180C fan forced (200C normal).
2. Whisk the soy, worcestershire, flour, seasonings, bay leaves and thyme sprigs in a casserole dish (or heavy bottomed pot that can go into the oven).
3. Briefly cook over a medium heat until the flour has dissolved.
4. Add the cubed beef, garlic, carrot, (potatoes and celery if using), onion, red wine and beef stock.
5. Stir with a wooden spoon, cover and cook in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours until the beef is tender, stirring a couple of time.
6. Taste the sauce for seasoning and adjust if required.
7. If not using the potatoes serve with mashed potatoe or rice.
