Beef Ragout Method

Get the meat ready first by triming the steak and cut into 3/4 inch cubes then place it in a bowl with 1 sliced onion, sliced carrots and the bayleaf. Add the wine and cover and allow to stand overnight. Next day drain off and reserve the liquid. Fry the meat on all sides in the heated oil until brown and then lift it out and add the remaining sliced onion and cook until brown. Stir in the flour, about 1 teaspoon salt and a dash of pepper and cook until the flour is browned. Add the stock and the liquid drained from the meat and stir until it boils and thickens. Return the meat to the saucepan and add peeled and sliced tomatoes, crushed garlic and the herbs. Cover the Beef Ragout and simmer gently for about 2 hours or until the steak is tender.
