1
Dice the beef into man sized chunks, place in the pan and brown
2
Remove from the pan and put to one side, put the onions and garlic into the pan, pop the lid on, and let them sweat (cook without colouring). When they are tender, re-add the beef to the pan along with the stock, carrots, zuchinni and bay leaves and gently bring to the boil.
3
Add the prunes.

Season with salt and pepper - not much as you can always add more later on.
5
Add red wine - don't be stingy - 2 glasses

Replace lid and leave to cook slowly on top of the stove/ or oven at the lowest temperature for about 2.5 -3hours. The meat will be so tender it will cut like softened butter with all flavours mixed, mingled and having a love affair in the pot.
