Ingredients

2 kg beef brisket
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp freshly ground pepper
2 tsp sweet paprika
4 tbsp unsalted butter
4 large onions, diced
500 ml canned tomato puree
8 large carrots, peeled and cut into 5 cm lengths
450 g mushrooms, cut into quarters if large
portions

Method

Preparation time: ca. 35 min / Grade of difficulty: easy / Calories per portion: n/a

Rub the brisket on both sides with the salt, pepper and paprika. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large, heavy pot over high heat. Add the brisket and brown on both sides, about 15 minutes. Remove brisket and set aside.

Melt the remaining 2 tablespoons butter in the pot over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft and golden, 15-20 minutes. Place the brisket atop the onions and cover the pot. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 2 hours. The meat will give off quite a bit of liquid. Add the tomato puree and continue to simmer until the meat is tender, about 1 hour longer. Add the carrot chunks and mushrooms during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

Transfer the meat to a platter and let stand for about 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon transfer the carrots and mushrooms to a serving bowl. Taste and adjust the seasoning of the pan juices and pour into a bowl.

Slice the brisket across the grain and serve with the vegetables and pan juices.
