Christine's beef bourguignon

I made this but with a twist. Instead of mash I made it with puff pastry. I didn't put it on top but just left it on the side and it was out of this world! Many thanks for the recipe though!! A big hit with the family and extended family too x - 24 Mar 2014
I like this recipe, it is easy and the result is very tasty and the meat tender and full of flavour. I cooked it in my slow cooker.. - 14 Mar 2014
