I chose the recipe for this week, but didn't read through it properly. When I saw frozen pearl onions, I thought to myself - frozen onions? I can afford fresh onions - I'm going to get that. (Food noob here -.-). At the end of the day, everything tasted good. The beef chunks were a little overcooked - gotta take it off the heat earlier next time.
Ingredients
- 1 cup onions, diced
- 2 lb beef chunks
- 1 tbsp butter or oil
- 3 bacon slices, finely chopped
- 1 8oz pack of mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tsp thyme
- pinch of sugar
- 2 tbsp tomato paste
- 1 cup red wine
- 2 cup beef broth
- 4 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
- Salt and pepper
1 cup frozen pearl onions
1 pound beef tenderloin, cut into roughly 2-inch chunks
1 tablespoon clarified butter or canola/safflower oil (or other neutral high smoke point oil)

2 large garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
