I haven't tried this one yet, but it looks really good. I had to add the "stars" as part of the posting procedure, not because I know at this point whether this dish tasts as good as it sounds.
1. Preheat the oven to 160 degrees C/325 degrees F/ Gas 3. Heat 30 ml/2 Tbsp of the oil or dripping in a pan and cook the onions over a low heat until softened. Remove from the pan and set aside.
2. Meanwhile, mix together the flour and mustard and season. Toss the beef in the flour. Add the remaining oil or dripping to the pan and heat over a high heat. Brown the beef all over, then transfer it to a deep, earthenware baking dish.
3. Reduce the heat and return the onions to the pan. Add the garlic, cook briefly, then add the beer or ale, water and sugar. Tie the thyme and bay leaf together and add to the boil, stirring, then season with salt and pepper.
4. Pour the sauce over the beef and mix well. Cover tightly, then place in the oven and cook for 2 1/2 hours. Check the beef once or twice to make sure that it is not too dry. Adding a little extra water if necessary. Test for tenderness, allowing an extra 30-40 minutes cooking time if necessary.
5. To make the topping beat together the butter, crushed garlic, dijon mustard and 30 ml/2 Tbsp of the chopped fresh parsley. Spread the flavoured butter thickly over the bread. Increase the oven temperature to 190 degrees C/375 degrees F/ Gas 5. Taste and season the stew, then arrange the prepared bread slices, buttered side uppermost, on top. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the bread is browned and crisp sprinkle the remaining chopped fresh parsley over the top to garnish and serve immediately.
