  3. Add vegetables to pan and sauté until nicely browned. Then add herbs and garlic and place in the container with the beef.
  4. Add liquid to the pan. Bring up to a simmer, using a wooden spoon to scrape up any bits stuck to the bottom. Add to beef with the rest of the vegetables ensuring the beef is well covered.
  5. Top with baking parchment, cover tightly with cling film and tin foil and place a lid on top also. Put in pre heated oven and cook for 4 – 4.5 hours until meat is very tender.

  7. Spoon the sauce over the beef to coat and serve.
