  • 2 brown onions, thickly sliced
  • 2 leeks, sliced
  • 8 cloves garlic
  • 1 bunch thyme leaves
  • 1L Spatlese Lexia (or other fruity white wine)
  • 2L beef stock

  • 2 Tbsp plain flour

Method
  • Score the beef knuckle finely, then sear in duck fat in a large heavy-based saucepan set over a high heat until well-browned, then set aside. Add the onions, leek, garlic and thyme and cook for 5 minutes. Pour in the wine, then boil for 5 minutes.
  • Return the beef and add the stock, adding water to cover. Simmer for 2½ hours, then add the onions, carrots, turnips and potatoes. Cook for 1 hour, until the vegetables are tender.
  • Mix the flour and butter, then stir in and simmer to thicken. Add the cavalo nero and parsley. Once wilted, carve the beef and serve with rye bread.
