Beef Casserole, with Onion and White Wine Gravy

 I used stock from Brisket beef, with spinach leaves, tomato, onion, mustard powder, oregano, basil and rosemary. garlic and white wine for the gravy, plus beef stock. Potatoes, carrots, parsnips, and sliced runner beans.

People have lost all sense of the importance of fat in cooking meat. Just because fat is involved in cooking doesn't mean that you have to eat it. But now much of the fat is gone before you get the cut, since a low fat content is perceived as the healthier choice. I find it much trickier to cook lean mince than mince with a significant fat content, and nowadays often avoid the leaner option. The Brisket was from Tesco's, and had some fat around the outside, so it was straightforward to roast.
