Boeuf bourguignon

17 ingredients 30 min Serves 6 openrecipes

It’s worth getting good-quality, well-marbled meat from the butcher’s shop for this dish. The supermarket meat is often too lean and will become dry rather than succulent during the long cooking. Serve with creamy mashed potatoes and some green vegetables, or even a crisp side salad with a mustardy dressing.
