10hr slow braised beef cheeks

Tender doesn’t even begin to describe it. These beef cheeks are rubbed with paprika, thyme, garlic and tomato, browned to a deep mahogany, then slow-braised overnight in a rich, spiced sauce of red wine, soy, orange juice, mandarin peel, cinnamon and star anise. The result? Meltingly soft meat in a sauce so complex it deserves a standing ovation. 

Ladle over a pile of buttery mash with greens on the side or shred the beef and toss through pappardelle. Either way, a glass of red is essential.
