The instruction how to make Slow-cooked beef with parmesan & herb dumplings

1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a stockpot over medium-high heat. Add half the beef and cook for 2-3 minutes each side or until browned. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining beef, reheating the pan between batches.
2. Heat remaining oil in the pan over medium heat. Add mushroom, bacon, onion and garlic. Cook, stirring, for 4-5 minutes or until onion is soft. Add the beef, tomato, stock, wine and rosemary. Stir to combine. Cover and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 1 1/2 hours or until the beef is tender. Stir in the tomato paste. Season with salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high. Cook, uncovered, for 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, to make the parmesan & herb dumplings, place flour in a large bowl and use your fingertips to rub butter into flour. Stir in the parsley and 40g (1/2 cup) of the parmesan. Add the milk. Use a round-bladed knife in a cutting motion to mix until evenly incorporated and the mixture begins to hold together. Divide the mixture evenly into 18 portions and roll each portion into a ball.
4. Preheat oven to 220u00b0C. Transfer the beef mixture to a 4L (16-cup) capacity ovenproof dish. Place dumplings on top. Brush with egg. Sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until dumplings are golden.
