1 Sweat the onions in a frying pan for 5 minutes. Then add mushrooms. Then add the minced beef. Using a wooden spoon to ensure the mince is completely broken up into small individual pieces. No large Clumps welcomed to this party LOL.
2 Once everything is golden brown add tomato passa, either shop bought or homemade. (In all my recipes I make my own.) To the mixture add red wine vinegar, red wine, tomato purée, beef stock. Allow to boil for 10 minutes. Then add all the other dry ingredients; dried onions, soy sauce, Worcester sauce, Chinese 5 spice, herbs, black pepper, salt, pepper corns, garlic, Cayenne pepper, chilli flakes, chilli salt. Allow to cook for 2 hours.
3 Serve with boiled rice, chips, potato wedges, mash potatoes or quinoa. Whichever sparks your keen interest. Perhaps with a wrap or flat bread on the side. Toasted even (my personal fav). Perhaps, perhaps, perhaps. Possibilities are endless. Either serve immediately once the rice or other sides have been cooked or better leave to rest overnight for all the flavors to become intensified. However you have your bon appetite.
