Notes
  1. TIP: Stewing cut of beef is an excellent choice to use for this dish. It does however, require a longer braising time (about 1.5 hours). If you don’t have that much time, use a higher quality cut of beef, likely sirloin that will do well in a short amount of time to give it a quick sear and stew.
