Carbonade flamande

Carbonade flamande is a yummy dish from Belgium that is made using pieces of beef, onions, and beer.

Basically, it starts by cooking the onions in a big pot until they are soft and brown. Then, the beef is added and cooked until it's a nice brown too. After that, some flour and salt are added to thicken the mixture.

Next, it's time for the fun part - adding the beer! This is what makes the dish so special. The beer helps to tenderize the meat and adds a delicious flavor. The beef, onions, flour and beer are all cooked together until the meat is really tender and everything is nice and thick.

Finally, carbonade flamande is typically served with some French fries or bread. It's a perfect meal for a chilly day - warm, comforting and filling!
