When I was home for Christmas, we watched Julie & Julia. Like I'm sure many people did, I immediately thought, "Boeuff Bourginon sounds delicious!" Last week, I tried it. For my red wine, I used my favorite, port. I'm a huge fan of port. Especially port and cranberry juice. You should try it sometime.
Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I made the boeuff bourginon from a recipe I found on SparkPeople.com.
Boeuf Bourginon
It turned out a bit runny, but I attribute that to the fact that I used 1.38 lbs of beef instead of 1.75. It was still delicious.
My side dish for the meal was risotto. I've always wanted to try risotto, considering it's a staple on nearly any Food Network show, but it seems really complicated when you're watching them on television. This recipe made it insanely easy to make, and it tasted delicious. I added a half cup of mushrooms and a half cup of shredded Parmesan cheese, right at the end. I will definitely be making both of these dishes again.
