    1 Heat oil over a moderate heat in a large casserole dish. Add onion, garlic and carrot. Cook until softened.

    2 Add meat, stirring to brown a little. Add stock, tomato paste, wine and herbs. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to very low. Cover and simmer for about 2 hours (the longer you cook it, the more tender the meat will become).

    3 While the stew cooks, cook potatoes in boiling water or stock and mash with garlic and sour cream.

    4 Put stew in an ovenproof baking dish or divide among 6 small dishes. Top with potato. Bake at 180°C for 30 minutes, or until top is golden. Garnish with fresh herbs.
