| 1. First prepare the beef, cut any excess fat off and cut into roughly 2cm cubes. | 2. Melt one tablespoon of the butter and olive oil over a fairly high heat. | 3. Saute the meat in batches, constantly moving it around the pan. | 4. It should be well and truly sealed but not cooked through. | 5. Remove and drain on paper towels. | 6. Repeat with remaining beef, using an additional tablespoon of butter and oil if you need it. | 7. Add the last tablespoons of oil and butter to the pan with the mushrooms, onions, bacon, garlic and thyme. | 8. Stir until the onions gain a little colour. | 9. Add the liquids and tomato paste to the pan, scrape up all the black bits. | 10. Now stir in the meat. | 11. Lightly season. | 12. (you may need to readjust this at the end) Turn the heat down to low and simmer covered for two to three hours. | 13. Towards the end you may wish to remove the lid to thicken up the sauce. | 14. (Alternatively you could use the slow cooker at this point, but you'd have two things to wash up) I serve this with bread or pasta, it really depends but I prefer fresh French bread with this. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
