    1. Prep the meat — rinse it and cut it into large serving pieces. 2. Peel and coarsely chop the onion. 3. Heat a skillet with the vegetable oil and sear the meat over high heat until browned, adding the onion in batches. Transfer the browned meat to a plate and sauté the onion for a couple more minutes. 4. Add the garlic and cook for a minute. 5. Add the puréed tomatoes and wait until the excess liquid cooks off and the mixture smells fragrant. Lower the heat. 6. Pour in the sweet white wine. 7. Follow it with the dry red wine. 8. Add one of the most important ingredients in this dish — the demi-glace. 9. Add salt and return the meat to the pan. Cover and simmer over low heat for 1 hour, until the meat is tender. 10. Pour the sauce off the meat into a separate skillet and skim the excess fat from the surface. 11. Add the ground black pepper to the sauce, stir, and reduce over high heat until thick. 12. Once the sauce has thickened, adjust with salt (if needed), sugar, and apple cider vinegar. Serve with boiled potatoes and fresh herbs. Enjoy!
