Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 1/4 pounds beef, round steak
1/2 cup brandy
2 cups beef stock prefer veal stock if possible
2 tablespoons prepared mustard coarse-grained
2 tablespoons dijon mustard
4 each shallots peeled, thinly sliced
4 each sundried tomatoes cut into slivers
3 large garlic cloves peeled, thinly sliced
6 each juniper berries
1 each bay leaf
1 x black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

In a Dutch oven or deep skillet, heat oil over medium heat.

Add meat and brown on all sides.

Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels and drain off all the pat in the pan.

Return the pan to the heat and immediately add brandy, stirring to scrape up any browned bits in the bottom.

Cook until the brandy is reduced to a syrupy glaze.

Stir in stock, mustards, shallots, sun-dried tomatoes, garlic, juniper berries, and bay leaf and bring to a boil.

Return the meat to the pan, cover tightly and place in the oven.

Bake, turning the meat every 30 min, for 1 1/2-2 hours, or until very tender.

Remove bay leaf and season the sauce with pepper.

Cut the meat into thin slices, arrange on a platter, and spoon the sauce over.
