- Roll them around to coat.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil into a large Dutch oven or other oven-safe stew pot over medium-high heat.
- Once hot add half of the beef cubes (its important to not overcrowd the beef if you want it to brown instead of boil) and sear on medium-high heat for a couple of minutes, rotating the cubes during cooking to get the sear on all sides.
- Remove the beef from the pot and put it on a plate.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil and repeat with the remainder of the beef.
- When beef has all been seared and removed from the pot, whisk in 1 cup of stock.
- Scrape up all the bits on the bottom of the pot and whisk them into the stock.
- Return the beef to the pot and add the onions, carrots, garlic, rosemary, thyme, remaining beef stock and red wine.
- Stir in the tomato paste and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Cover the pot and put it into the 350 F oven to cook for 3 hours.
- Serve over potatoes, egg noodles or rice.
- Makes approximately 4 servings but the recipe can easily be doubled.
