Time 2h5m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ¼ pounds blade steak, cut into 4 portions
salt and pepper to taste
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, halved and sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon ground thyme
2 cups low-sodium beef stock
¼ cup dry red wine
2 ½ pounds baking potatoes, peeled and halved
5 cloves garlic, sliced, or more to taste
¾ cup warm milk
2 tablespoons melted butter
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Season blade steaks with salt and pepper. Coat steaks with flour, shaking off any excess. Reserve excess flour.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add steaks and brown on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer steaks to a covered casserole dish.
  • Add onions and minced garlic to the skillet; cook and stir until the onion has softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add thyme and 3 tablespoons of the reserved flour; stir until well combined. Slowly pour beef stock and wine into the skillet, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the stock mixture over the steaks.
  • Cook, covered, in the preheated oven until steaks are very tender, about 90 minutes.
  • While the steaks are cooking, place potatoes and garlic slices into a large pot and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Add warm milk, melted butter, salt, and pepper to the potato-garlic mixture; beat with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Serve steaks on a bed of mashed potatoes and spoon pan juices over top.

The beef was a bit tough, but the mashed potatoes were delicious. I might try this recipe again with a different cut of beef.

The mashed potatoes were the best part of the dish. The beef was tender and well-seasoned, but not as flavorful as I had hoped. Overall a good recipe.
