Description
This dish is for serious garlic-lovers! Of coarse you can increase or reduce the amount of garlic, bake the garlic well in advance to save time. A tender cut of beef like beef tenderloin or sirloin steak is recommended since the beef is cooked in the juice for only a short time. This beef dish is almost similar to a stew, but cooked in a much shorter time. Serve this with hot cooked egg noodles or pasta.
