Instructions
- Prepare the marinade: Slice the vegetables and place in a large bowl with the garlic and the peppercorns.

- Remove the beef from the marinade and pat dry with some kitchen paper. Place in a bowl and add the flour. Mix well.
- Strain the marinade and put the vegetables to one side. Boil the liquid for 5 minutes to reduce it’s volume.
- Melt 100 g (3½ oz) of the butter in a large pan and add the beef. Stir-fry for 5 minutes to brown the beef.
- Add the vegetables from the marinade and the tomato paste. Cook for 5 minutes.
- Add in the liquid from the marinade, the beef stock and the bouquet garni. Cover and simmer for 1-1½ hours.
- Melt the remaining butter in a pan and add the onions and bacon (if using). Cook for 5-10 minutes until brown.
- Add in the mushrooms, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5 more minutes.

Titli's Tips
By marinating the meat overnight the cooking time should be around 2 hours, so add the mushroom/onion mixture into the large pan after about 1 hour cooking time.
Serve with boiled potatoes or crusty bread.
