Description
Got this recipe from the December 2010 'Easy Food' magazine, but as I've made it and enjoyed it, I want to save it somewhere where I won't lose it (ie. husband might throw mag out)

1. Preheat oven to 160c/gas mark 3. Toss beef in seasoned flour. Heat oil in a large casserole over a high heat. Add half beef and brown for 5mins. Remove, and repeat with rest of beef and remove.
2. Add onions to casserole dish and cook for about 5 mins (doesn't matter if there's all beefy flour stuck to bottom of casserole, it magically disappears when cooking!). Stir in Garlic and paprika, cooking for a further minute, then add the tomatoes, stock and browned beef. Bring to the boil and season to taste.
3. Cover and bake for 1 hour, then stir and bake for another 30 mins until beef is tender.
4. When removed from the oven, allow to cool slightly, then stir in the sour cream and parsley.
I served this with buttered tagliatelle, but I guess it would go well with rice or mash etc... Garnish with a bit of extra sour cream and a sprinkling of paprika if you need it to look fancy! The recipe suggested that it works just as well with pork! Enjoy!
