Spiced Beef Fillet Stew

Ingredients

• 1 young tender beef fillet
• White wine (enough to cover)
• Salt
• Pepper
• Tamara spice blend (see note)
• Beef broth
• Whole cloves
• Mace

Method

1. 1 Clean the beef fillet, removing all skins and sinews. Place in a bowl with white wine and crush/wash it well.
2. 2 Season with pepper, salt, and Tamara spice blend. Add enough white wine to cover the meat completely.
3. 3 Cover with a trencher or lid, place a weight on top to keep meat submerged, and steep for two nights and one day.
4. 4 Remove beef from the wine (discard wine). Place beef in a pot with sweet beef broth (do not use the pickle liquid).
5. 5 Add whole cloves and mace. Cover tightly and stew on low heat (embers) until very tender.
6. 6 Serve the beef with the broth it was stewed in, ensuring it is well-covered.
