Beef and Onions Stewed in Wine I used a pressure cooker for this and it made for very tender and delicious beef. Ingredients (approx. amounts) 2 large sweet onions 6 cloves garlic 1.5 pounds of chuck roast cut into large pieces 1/4 cup flour salt/pepper to taste dried thyme to taste about 1/2 bottle california zinfandel (Montevina 2001) about 2 tbsp tomato paste First, I sliced the onions and caramelized them in my pan with salt and pepper until soft, sweet and browned. To this I added dried thyme,garlic, and beef seasoned with salt/pepper and tossed with flour - stirred for a minute then the wine and tomato paste were added. The pressure cooker top was placed on and cooked at high pressure for 20 minutes. This was allowed to cool slowly to allow the pressure to release. Served over sliced cooked potatoes. The only thing missing is some good crusty french bread! Next time!

Greg, that looks so delicious! My Mom made a similar dish for supper tonight, minus the wine and tomato paste. She makes hers in a very rich beefy mushroom gravy! She served it with her homemade gnocchi and peas. A real winter treat!

This looks yummy, Greg! I made Monique's French Dip beef on rolls today for football night.
