Beef shank with vegetables

Here's a beef shank dish that I've managed to cook on several occasions already. It's a simple meat-and-potato kind of dish but with a little extra garden variety and I make it extra tomatoey.



INGREDIENTS
- 1 kilo of beef shank, cut to serving size
- 1 can or a small pack of tomato sauce
- 8 small potatoes (peeled)
- 2 big carrots (peeled and cut)
- 2 large onions (sliced)
- 1 yellow capsicum (sliced)
- few olives
- garlic (crushed)
- a cup of red wine
- a tbsp of white sugar
- a dash of oregano
- wombok leaves
- salt and pepper




TO COOK:
Boil the beef shank till it's tender. Add the tomato sauce,potato, carrots, onion and garlic and continue boiling. Before the vegetables are done, add the wine, sugar and all the seasoning like salt, pepper and oregano. After it simmered for about 15 minutes, add the wombok leaves and the capsicum. Always sample the sauce to suit your taste. You can add some Knorr seasoning for more flavoring. Enjoy!
