Balsamic braised beef

This was awful. Followed the recipe exactly. As others say, far to much vinegar and the flavour of the whole dish was not nice. Did enough for two days but that bad the remains went in the bin. Wasted some nice beef on this dish.

Loved this recipe. I like balsamic and didnt find it at all overpowering as others have - I did half all the quantities but used a full knorr beef stock pot with only 150ml of water so that may have helped increase the 'beefiness'! Even with half quantities it easily fed 5

Although I like balsamic vinegar, the flavours in this dish weren't to my taste - not sure if it was the carrots with balsamic. I'd substitute them with something else, may be peppers and courgettes, if I made this again.

Far too much vinegar, had to drain off most of the juices and make a gravy to add to the meat then cook for a further 20-25 mins to try and reduce the taste of vinegar. Not recommended!

Tried this recipe but found the amount of balsamic vinegar was too overpowering and made the dish taste bitter. Will try again but will reduce the balsamic to a few table spoons.
