For this recipe I was inspired by a dish from a Greek restaurant.

Brown the meat in a pan in butter. Then remove and cut into large pieces. Add the sugar to the pan and let it caramelize slightly. Add the onions and shallots and sauté. Add the tomato paste and stir. Deglaze with beef stock and red wine. Add the meat back in. Season with salt, pepper, rosemary, thyme, and cinnamon, and season to taste. Simmer slightly and then season again to taste. Serve with kritharaki pasta (Greek rice noodles) and a green salad, for example.
