Ingredients

Method

1.Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F).
2.Trim beef. Heat half the oil in large flameproof casserole dish; cook beef, over heat, in batches, until browned all over. Remove from dish.
3.Heat remaining oil in same dish; cook brown onion and carrot, stirring, until onion softens. Add wine, vinegar, undrained tomatoes, sugar, fennel, peppercorns, rosemary and oregano, then return beef; bring to the boil. Cover; cook in oven 2 hours.
4.Stir in spring onion and mushrooms; cook 45 minutes or until beef is tender.
5.Meanwhile, make the cheesy polenta. Bring the water and milk to the boil in large saucepan. Gradually add polenta, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer, stirring, about 10 minutes or until polenta thickens. Stir in cheese and butter.
6.Serve beef with cheesy polenta and, if you like, sprinkle with extra rosemary leaves.

Polenta tends to thicken on standing, so serve immediately after cooking.
