Method
- Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based casserole over a medium heat and brown the meat on all sides, in batches. Set aside. In the same pan, cook the onions for 3-4 minutes or until softened and golden.
- Add the wine, stock, port, tomato purée, porcini mushrooms and soaking liquor, Worcestershire sauce, allspice and thyme to the pan. Mix well, add the meat back to the pan and bring to the boil. Reduce to a gentle simmer, cover with a lid and cook for 3 hours or until very tender. Add the mushrooms to the pan for the last 10 minutes of cooking time. Season well.
