Method

Firstly, lightly cover the meat pieces with plain flour and brown in the pot on all sides. You will need to do this in batches then set aside. This is important.

Next, add the onion and a touch more olive oil and fry down until soft and caramelised. Then add the tomato paste to the pan and allow to sit for a few moments to remove any bitternes then stir into the onions.

Then add the stock, potatoes, tomatoes, red wine, green beans, pomerganate molasses (if using) and your spices from the recipe pouch and stir again so the flavours are evenly spread. Now return the meat to the pan and again, stir everything together.

For the oven, cover the pot with foil before placing the lid then bake at 180c - 200c for around two hours until the meat is falling apart. After one hour check and add a little water if the sauce is drying out.
