INSTRUCTIONS
Put butter or oil into a large frying pan then add the sliced onions and cook over a very low heat, stirring occasionally until the onions are glossy and golden, allowing 10 to 15 minutes for the onions to start to caramelise and develop a good flavour, adding the crushed garlic during the last few minutes. Meanwhile, cut steak into large pieces, discarding excess fat. Coat meat with mixture of flour and mustard. Transfer onions and garlic to a casserole dish then add a little more butter or oil to the pan and seal the meat until brown and crusty. Transfer to casserole, pour in beer then add vinegar and brown sugar and season with 1/2 level teaspoon salt (or to taste) and plenty of freshly milled black pepper. Tuck in the bouquet garni then cover tightly and cook in a moderate oven (180 deg C) for about 2 hours. Remove bouquet garni then cool the casserole quickly, refrigerate or freeze. Reheat in microwave or moderate oven. Serve piping hot and scatter over lots of fresh parsley. Accompany with plenty of mashed potatoes to help mop up the delicious beef and onion gravy. Sweet young green peas or sugar snaps are delicious with this dish. Serves 5 to 6 Converted by MC_Buster.
