Ingredients

    1-1/2# bottom round, well trimmed and cut in 2-inch peices
    1 cup all purpose flour
    1/3 cup olive oil
    2 large onions, diced (2 cups)
    1-6 oz can tomato paste
    1 cup dry red wine
    1# potatoes, cut into 2-inch pieces (about 4 cups)
    2 cups beef broth
    1 tablespoon kosher salt
    1 tsp dried thyme leaves
    1 bay leaf
    1 cup frozen peas, thawed

Directions

Coat the beef in the flour. Heat a few tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the meat, a few pieces at a time, adding more oil as necessary. Transfer to 1 4 to 6 quart slow cooker.
Add the onions to the skillet and cook over medium heat until tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and coat the onions; transfer to the cooker.
Pour the wine into the skillet and scrape up any browned bits; add to the cooker. Stir in the poatoes, carots, broth, salt, thyme, and bay leaf.

Cover and cook on low heat for 7.5 hours, or on high for 4 hours. Add the peas and heat through.
