Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350˚F. Season the beef on all sides with salt and pepper.

• Toss together the onion, garlic, carrots, celery, potatoes, rosemary in the pan. Allow to cook, stirring occasionally, until browned. Stir in the tomato paste and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.

• Place the seared beef back in the pan and top with the beef stock and add bay leaves.
