Braised Beef and Oka Cheese Shepherd’s Pie

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large pot over medium-high heat, brown the beef on all sides in the oil. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a plate.

2. 2

   In the same pot over medium heat, brown the onion and garlic. Deglaze with the wine. Add the broth and return the meat to the pot. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook over medium-low heat for about 2 hours. Remove the cover and cook for about 30 minutes or until the meat is fork tender and the sauce has reduced by half.

3. 3

   With the rack in the middle position, preheat the oven to 350 °F (180 °C).

4. 4

   Drain the meat and place on a work surface. Pour the cooking juices into a 11 x 8-inch (28 x 23 cm) baking dish. Shred the meat while removing most of the fat. Spread the meat into the baking dish and toss with the cooking juices. Set aside.
