Takes around 30 minutes to get through the preparation of the dish, then another 2 to 4 hours to be thouroughly cooked.
I can understand and respect if someone does not enjoy cooking and all their patience to do it is exhausted in basic, comforting meals, but you can and should enjoy meals that demand a little more time to make in order to indulge in something, even if only a little, beyond basics.
The dish I mention is perfect for lazy people: except for the first thirty minutes, the remaining time is just check if there is enough liquid in the pot and add more if necessary. And it is even better if allowed to cool overnight.
Beef Wellington gang chiming in. Took me like 2 hours to get the tiny mushrooms right and flambé my green peppercorns for my sauce. But deffo a special occasion dish not a midweek meal.
Beef bourguignon.
