Ingredients:

1 tbsp olive oil
14g
1 onion
160g
2 carrots
120g
2 garlic cloves
6g
2 tbsp vinegar
30g
1 cup beef broth
250g
1 tbsp fresh thyme
16g
1 sweet potato
200g
3 potatoes
600g
6 oz broccoli
170g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Peel and chop the onion and carrots. Mince the garlic. Peel and dice the sweet potato and regular potatoes.
- Trim and cut the broccoli into florets and set aside.
2. Sear the Beef:
- Heat the olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Pat the beef dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Sear the beef for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
3. Cook the Aromatics:
- In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sliced carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the onion is translucent and the vegetables have started to soften.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
4. Deglaze and Simmer:
- Stir in the vinegar, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet.
- Pour in the beef broth and add the fresh thyme. Bring to a simmer.
- Return the seared beef to the skillet, nestling it into the vegetables and broth mixture.
5. Braise the Beef:
- Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and place it in the preheated oven.
- Braise for about 2 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily shreddable.
6. Roast the Potatoes and Broccoli:
- While the beef braises, spread the diced sweet potatoes, diced regular potatoes, and broccoli florets on a baking sheet.
- Drizzle with a bit of olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Roast in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and the broccoli is roasted and slightly crispy.
7. Final Assembly:
- When the beef is fully braised, remove it from the oven.
- Serve the tender braised beef with the roasted sweet potatoes, potatoes, and broccoli on the side.
8. Garnish and Serve:
- Optionally, garnish with additional fresh thyme leaves and a drizzle of the braising liquid to enhance the flavors.
- Enjoy your delicious Braised Beef with Roasted Potatoes and Broccoli!

Tips:

- Choose a good quality cut of beef for braising, such as chuck roast or brisket, to ensure tenderness and flavor.

- Brown the beef thoroughly before braising to enhance the depth of flavor.

- Use fresh herbs for the best aromatic experience, but dried thyme can be substituted if necessary.

- Cut the vegetables into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

- Check the seasoning before serving and adjust salt and pepper to taste.

- Serve the dish with a side of crusty bread to soak up the delicious braising liquid.
