Slow-Cooked Tomato Braised Beef with Crusty Bread

👉Ingredients:

2 pounds beef chuck roast, cut into large chunks

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 cups crushed tomatoes

1/4 cup red wine (optional)

1 tablespoon tomato paste

2 teaspoons dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

👉Directions:

Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add beef chunks and brown on all sides for about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

In the same pot, add chopped onions and garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes until soft and fragrant.

Stir in tomato paste, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes.

Add crushed tomatoes and red wine (if using) to the pot, stirring to combine. Return beef to the pot.

Cover the pot and let simmer on low heat for 2-3 hours, or until the beef is tender and the sauce is rich.

Serve hot with slices of rustic bread on the side.
