Directions
-
In a Dutch oven or heavy saucepan, cook the bacon and chopped onion until the onion is soft but not browned.

Using a slotted spoon, remove the cooked bacon and onion from the pan and set aside in a bowl.

Add the bite-sized round steak pieces to the remaining bacon drippings in the pan and cook until browned on all sides.

Sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper to taste.

Add the mushrooms, garlic, Burgundy wine, water, dried parsley, celery flakes, thyme, and bay leaf to the pan.
-
Return the reserved bacon and onion mixture to the pan and stir well to combine.
-
Cover the pan and simmer over low heat for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the meat is tender.

Monitor the liquid level; add more water if it reduces too quickly, and adjust heat to maintain a gentle simmer.
-
Once tender, use a slotted spoon to transfer the meat and vegetable mixture to a serving bowl.
-
Discard the bay leaf from the liquid in the pan.
-
In a small cup, mix the flour with a small amount of the hot cooking liquid to create a smooth slurry.
-
Stir the flour slurry into the remaining liquid in the pan.
-
Cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute until the sauce thickens.
-
Pour the thickened sauce over the meat mixture in the serving bowl and stir to combine.
