Method for Beef Bourguignon

• Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat the oil in a large casserole over medium-high heat.
• In batches, without crowding, add just enough meat to cover the bottom of the pot and brown all over. About 5 minutes per batch.
• Transfer the meat to a plate.
• Add the onions and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
• Add the garlic, bacon, mushrooms, baby carrots and pearl onions.
• Off the heat, sift the flour over the vegetables, and mix well.
• Return the pot to low heat. Gradually stir in the red wine and beef stock, then the tomato paste, thyme, bay leaves, salt and pepper.
