Add the beef to the pot and braise for 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side until browned.

Remove the beef and sprinkle flour on top.

Place the beef back in the oven for 4 minutes, then stir and return for another 4 minutes (total of 8 minutes).

After 4 minutes, mix the beef and put it back in the oven for another 4 minutes.

Add the carrot and onion to the pot after the beef has cooked in the oven.

Pour in 2 cups of beef broth and 2 cups of red wine, ensuring the liquid covers the meat.

Add tomato paste, thyme, bay leaves, pearl onions, and mushrooms to the pot.

Mix everything together and let it slow cook on low to medium heat for at least 3 hours, preferably 8 hours for better flavor and tenderness.

If cooking for longer than 3 hours, add more wine and beef broth as needed to maintain liquid.

Cook the papardelle pasta in boiling salted water according to package instructions.
