beef bourguignon Thermomix Recipe

beef-bourguignon

French food would be one of my favourite cuisines, because it’s often deliciously rich but humble. This Beef Bourguignon Thermomix recipe produces tender beef & is the ultimate comfort food recipe.

I have wanted to try my hand at a Beef Bourguignon recipe for quite some time now, but I was hesitant because I hadn’t yet mastered producing tender beef in the Thermomix.

While I am not a big wine drinker, when I cook with wine I like to choose a good quality organic drinking wine to use, as having grown up on a market garden and vineyard, I know what goes onto grapes and into the soil (chemicals, fertilisers and sprays). 

Pure Vision is a 100% certified organic wine, made just down the road from the farm I grew up on in Virginia, and where I currently live.

I believe strongly in supporting local businesses, which is why this isn’t a sponsored plug and just a passionate recommendation.

I hope your family love this one.

I like to serve this healthy Thermomix recipe with the Rustic Mashed Potato from the Rustic Shepherd’s Pie recipe or the Cauliflower Mash.

Slow Cooker Instructions

  1. Transfer to the slow cooker after Step 2 and increase the meat if you like.
  2. Omit the water & only use stock paste (this reduces the liquid).
  3. Cook on low for 8hrs, remove lid to reduce in the last 30 mins if required.

Calories: 289kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 medium brown onion - peeled, quartered
  • 3 garlic cloves - peeled
  • 100 g speck or streaky bacon - thinly sliced
  • 20 g olive oil
  • 700 g gravy beef - trimmed and cubed medium/small
  • 300 g liquid beef stock - or 300 g | 10.6 oz water + 1 Tbsp beef stock concentrate
  • 200 g red wine - I used Pure Vision Organic Merlot
  • 100 g small shallots - peeled, whole
  • 50 g tomato paste
  • 2 x bay leaf
  • 5 sprigs of fresh thyme
  • 1/2 - 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 100 g button mushrooms - halved

Instructions

  • Add onion and garlic to mixer bowl, chop for 2 sec/speed 6/MC on. Scrape bowl down.
  • Add speck and oil, cook for 5 min/100°C or 212°F/speed 1/MC off.
  • Add remaining ingredients, except for the mushrooms, and cook for 30 min/steaming temp/slowest speed/MC off. Put the simmering basket over the hole to avoid making a mess of your kitchen.
  • Add mushrooms and cook for a further 10 min/steaming temp/slowest speed/MC off. Put the simmering basket over the hole to avoid making a mess of your kitchen. You may need a little more or less time depending on your thermal cooker - because beef tends to have different water content levels, watch this recipe closely towards the end to avoid the meat disintegrating or drying out.
