Daube de boeuf Provencal -Slow cooked Rich Beef Stew

Daube de boeuf Provencal -Slow cooked Rich Beef Stew

Daube de boeuf provençal from Michelin-starred chef Eric Chavot, modified in clay. Melt-in-the-mouth beef paired with a heady red wine. You can say bon appétit.

A SLOW-COOKED STEW is hard to beat; meltingly tender meat in a rich, flavoursome sauce, accompanied by mash and a plethora of vegetables, make it one of the most satisfying meals to cook and eat. This recipe from Eric Chavot and his Michelin-starred, eponymous brasserie takes inspiration from traditional French cuisine, using cloves, cinnamon and orange and lemon peel for a warming kick.

Ingredients:
  • 1.2kg beef feather blade or beef cheeks, trimmed
  • 6 smoked bacon rashers
  • 250g tinned tomatoes
  • 2 onions (diced)
  • 300g carrots (sliced)
  • 1 celery stick (sliced)
  • 1 sprigs rosemary
  • 4 sprigs lemon thyme
  • 10 black peppercorns
  • 4 cloves
  • ½ cinnamon stick
  • Orange and lemon peels from ½ an orange and a lemon
  • 750ml red wine
  • 375ml white wine
  • 500ml veal stock (use good quality beef stock cubes if you can’t find veal stock)
  • Fine sea salt to taste
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions:

  1. Gently season the beef and colour in a heated frying pan until golden all over.
  2. Remove the meat and set aside. Quickly fry the bacon rashes, and then set aside with the beef.
  3. Using the same pan, gently cook your vegetables until golden brown, soft and sweet.
  4. Add the tomato and cook gently for a couple of minutes.
  5. Remove the mixture from the pan and drain in a small colander.
  6. Deglaze the pan with the wine, bring to a gentle simmer and reduce by half.
  7. Place the beef in your vitaclay pot; add your bacon, vegetables, wine, veal stock, spices and herbs.
  8. Set on slowing / stew to cook for 2-3 hours.
  9. When done the meat should feel soft to the touch and have no resistance when your prick it gently with a fork.
  10. When ready, remove the meat gently from your clay pot into a deep dish, and cover with cling film.
  11. Strain the sauce through a fine sieve into a clean saucepan and reduce to a nice shiny sauce consistency. Add the meat when done. Serve with a creamy mash potato and a garnish of glazed button onions; glazed baby carrots, niçoise olives, semi-dried tomato and chargrilled baby artichokes.
Enjoy!
