This is amazing, such a delicious flavour. I didn't have shallots so used two medium onions and used gravy beef, was so tender. This will be going into my favourites, thank you for sharing this tasty recipe.
This dish was so easy and so delicious. I cut my beef into bite-size pieces and and I added carrot, potato and zucchini when I added the wine, vinegar, flour etc. I think the red wine and the red wine vinegar gave it a unique taste so as I said I really enjoyed this dish
Fabulous flavour. I substituted shallots with red onions as that is what was at hand. Very tasty for the whole family.
Did not work for me. The beef was very chewy, not an authentic taste, very thick sauce that needed watering down and bits of cinnamon stick were not very nice.
Perhaps I did something wrong but we didnt think this was as good as what all the comments suggested.
Just had this for dinner and it was beautiful!
I made this and reduced the wine to 200grams, but should have left it at 400, as it dried out a lot.
I made this last night. I found that you need to cut up the shallots as they did not really move around in the bowl as they just got stuck in the same position. Once it did that, they cooked away nicely.
The recipie also does not say how small to cut the beef, I did around 1cm cubes but next time would go bigger.
The flavour of this was great. There was too much cinnamon flavour for our liking so will halve the quantity next time. The 400G of wine was great, I would not use less.
After the hour, most of the cubes of meat and the shallots had disintergrated so it was certainly cooked tender but I hope next time it stays together better to leave a few chunks of meat / shallots.
We loved this though, very simple and tasty dinner!!
Any suggestion on what I can substitute red wine with?
Hi there. Have just made this and the flavour seems very intense... Is it really 400g of red wine... Not 40g?? Thanks for your help. Was easy to do, I maybe just need to tweak it for our taste buds
