Mediterranean beef casserole

I love slow-cooking recipes! They are hearty, but can be made healthy, for quite cheap and require little skills. On the downside, it takes time to nurture such a dish. When I'm cooking for my family, it's always worth the time! And they give it back to me.
This Mediterranean beef casserole is perfect to warm up grey-ish days like today: a tiny tomato-ish, with spring seasoning based on thyme, balsamic vinegar, olives, capers and parsley, and a touch of red wine.



Served on mashed potatoes or pasta, all the family loves this hearty meal! Grown ups: Don't forget to compliment it with a glass of red wine ;)

Ingredients (~ 6 servings)

- 1 kg beef chuck strips (1 x 3 cm)
- 1 yellow capsicum
- 2 cups beef stock
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, crushed
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 2 tbsp tomato paste

- 1/2 olives (green or black)
- 1 tbsp rosemary, chopped
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
