Combine chopped onion, parsley, thyme, bay leaves, black pepper, green
peppercorns, oil & wine in a 2-quart glass or stainless steel bowl. Stir to
blend well. Add beef, stir well & let stand at room temperature at least 2
hours, stirring occasionally. Melt lard & 2 Tbs butter in a large, heavy
saucepan. Drain beef cubes, reserving marinade. Add beef to pan; cook until
browned, stirring as needed. Add brandy and flame carefully, stirring so it
ignites well. Add reserven marinade & broth. Bring to a boil; reduce heat,
cover & simmer 2-3 hours until beef is tender. Meanwhile, prepare onions.
Cut stem & root ends off each; cook in boiling water 10 minutes, then pop
onions out of their skins. Melt remaining 2 Tbs butter in a heavy skillet;
add onions & garlic. Cook until onions are golden brown, then add to stew &
simmer at least 30 minutes longer. Taste & add salt, more wine or other
seasonings as desired. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
