  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 medium onion , diced
  • 1 carrot , diced
  • 4 cloves garlic , minced
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes

Instructions

  • Season the beef chunks with salt and pepper. In a large pot, heat the oil and brown the beef on all sides, for about 5-6 minutes. Set aside.
  • In the same pot, add the onion, carrot, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the onion is translucent. Add the tomato paste and cook for a minute more, until the paste is mixed with the veggies and starts browning.
  • Add the wine and soy sauce. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half, about 2-3 minutes. Add the pâté and tomato sauce. Stir well.

  • When there are about 10 minutes of cooking left, add the bell peppers and peas. Serve with rice or baguette. Enjoy!
