Ingredients

Method

Combine the beef, vegetables, spices, and vinegar in a bowl for the marinade. Cover and let marinate in the fridge for 24-48 hours, turning occasionally.

After marinating, remove the beef and pat dry, reserving the marinade.

Heat the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the beef and brown on all sides.

Add the reserved marinade to the pot, bring to a simmer, and cook covered until the beef is tender, about 2-3 hours.

Remove the beef from the pot, strain the sauce, and return it to the pot.

Whisk together the cream and flour until smooth, then add to the sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook until the sauce has thickened. Season with salt to taste.

For the cranberry compote, combine the cranberries, sugar, water, orange zest, and juice in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the compote thickens, about 15-20 minutes.

Slice the beef and serve with the sauce, cranberry compote, and Czech dumplings on the side.
