Roast beef Moni's style

Ingredients for 4 servings:

• 1 kg roast beef from the leg
• 1 bunch of soup vegetables (2 carrots, 1 celery root, leek), roughly diced
• 3 onions, roughly diced
• 1 bay leaf
• 3 grains of allspice
• ½ tube(s) tomato paste
• broth
• Wine, red
• Oil for frying
• Salt and pepper from the mill
• possibly sauce thickener, alternatively flour butter to thicken

Instructions

Working time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes; Total time approx. 1 hour 30 minutes

Rinse the meat lightly and dry with kitchen paper. Heat the oil and sear the piece of beef on all sides. Let it brown a little, but don’t let it burn. Add the roughly diced vegetables and onions. Sauté briefly and stir in half a tube of tomato paste. Let it roast lightly. Deglaze with red wine and stock, add the bay leaf, allspice, salt, and pepper, and simmer. Thicken with flour butter or a sauce thickener if desired. Potatoes, dumplings, and gnocchi go well as side dishes, and red cabbage, beans with tomatoes, or Brussels sprouts go well as side vegetables. Tip: This also works very well in a pressure cooker.
