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. 

To Serve

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.

* We don’t add preservatives or additives to our meals – we cook with the same real ingredients you would find in your home fridge and pantry. Some of these household ingredients do contain sub-ingredients, for example Dijon mustard contains sulphites and crushed tomatoes contain citric acid. We try to find products with as few additives as possible and always list every ingredient in our meals, both here and on the label.
