Directions
-
Step 1
Heat the oil or butter in large pan over high heat. Cook mushrooms until they are slightly charred and remove. If your pan is too small, cook the mushrooms in 2-3 batches. You don’t need to clean your pan after cooking the mushrooms.
-
Step 2
Reduce the heat to medium and add more oil or butter to the pan. Sauté the shallots and carrots until charred. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
-
Step 3
Increase the heat to high. Add the wine, stock, tomato paste, flour, thyme and bay leaves. Boil the mixture for 10 minutes, then add the mushrooms. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook the bourguignon for 20-30 minutes. The bourguignon is ready when the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened.
-
Step 4
Serve with mashed potato, noodles, polenta or with crusty bread.
