This dish is truly delicious. Plus, its really easy. You do need a bit of time do get the sauce to thicken and to soften the meat but its amazing what you can do with only a few simple ingredients. I have made it twice in the last week - first served with roast potatoes and second in a pie form that was divine! so, let me know how it goes, if you make it, I am sure you will love it, like we did. 
Serves 4: 500g beef fillet diced in cubes, 1 diced onion, 2 garlic cloves crushed, about 10 button mushrooms cut into quarters, 2 tbsp plain flour, 1 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp thyme, 1 glass red wine, 1x 400g can diced tomatoes, salt and pepper to taste
1. Cut meat, place it in a bowl and add flour. Shake to coat;
2. Heat the oil in a sauce pan, add onion and garlic and cook until it softens;
3. Add beef and cook stirring for a couple of minutes. Add mushrooms and cook for a further minute; 4. Add wine, tomatoes and thyme. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 1 1/2 hours - check every 20 minutes so it doesn't stick to the bottom and add salt gradually so the flavours blend slowly;
5. Finally adjust flavours and serve. This dish is even better a day or two later and I hope you enjoy it.
