Meat stewed with onions
Description
As you'll see, almost all the ingredients here will undergo initial heat treatment separately. This will allow each ingredient to retain its flavor, which will then be fully revealed in the finished dish. If you don't have anchovies, you can replace them with fish sauce.

Now let's move on to the vegetables. Clean the mushrooms, cut them into quarters, and sauté in a saucepan with vegetable oil. Remove the mushrooms, then fry pearl onions together with diced carrots. Halve the onion without peeling, and sauté it with celery stalks, a whole carrot, and garlic cloves (also unpeeled). Add 100 ml of red wine and simmer these vegetables for about 5 minutes.

Place all the sautéed vegetables and mushrooms into a pot, pour in the broth with anchovies, add thyme, bay leaf, and meat. Simmer everything over low heat until the sauce reduces by two-thirds. Then remove the large pieces of carrot, celery, onion, garlic, bay leaf, and thyme. Add cubed potatoes to the pot.
