Ingredients
4large onions
2tbsp.all-purpose flour
1tsp.paprika powder
2tablespoonbutter
4Steaks
Salt & pepper to taste
2tbsp.yellow mustard
1tablespoonhigh-heat cooking oil like avocado, canola
1cupred wine
1 ⅔cupsbeef stock
Instructions
Peel onions and slice finely.
Blend flour with paprika powder and dust onion rings with the flour mixture.
Fry the onions in a large pan in butter until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Salt and pepper the steaks to taste, and brush with mustard on both sides.
Cut small incisions around the sides of the steaks to make sure that the meat will not curl during frying.
Sear the steaks on both sides for about 1 minute per side.
Then remove the steaks from the pan and set them aside.
Add the red wine to the pan. Stir in the beef stock and half of the onions.
Bring to a boil and place steaks back into the pan.
Cover the pan with a lid and allow to cook on low heat for about 60–180 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat.
Remove the steaks from the pan and keep warm.
Blend the sauce with an immersion blender or in a stand blender until smooth. (This step is optional; you can serve the sauce as is if you prefer a gravy with more texture.)
To serve, place the steaks on a warm plate, drizzle with the sauce, and garnish generously with the remaining fried onions. Serve immediately.
