Heat 7.5ml of olive oil in a hot frying pan and sear the beef on both sides.

Fry shallots, red onion, tomato purée, and garlic in a casserole dish with remaining oil until browned.

Bring the liquid to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.

Remove the beef and set it aside to rest while keeping it warm.

Mix 25g butter and 10g flour together and whisk into the boiling sauce to thicken.

Combine mashed potatoes with chives and parmesan to taste.
