Method

In a large saucepan or casserole dish, gently fry the onion and garlic in plenty of good olive oil for a few minutes, taking care not to brown them.

Season the beef well with salt and black pepper and immediately add to the pan. Fry until evenly sealed and lightly browned.

Add the olives and tomatoes to the pan and simmer gently for two hours with the lid on.

Serve. The olives make this a filling meal in itself, but it could be served with rice or simply with bread to mop-up the gravy.
