Beef Ingredients:

3 carrots, roughly chopped
1 garlic bulb, halved
1 brown onion, sliced
500 ml Guinness
500 ml red wine

Beef Method:
Trim the beef cheeks to neaten them up and remove any sinew and silver skin. Season well. Heat half the olive oil in a large heavy-based saucepan over high heat. Brown the beef cheeks for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden, then remove from the pan. Add the remaining olive oil, then add the carrots, garlic and onion and sauté over high heat for 12-15 minutes or until well browned. Stir in the Guinness, wine, beef stock and sea salt. Reduce the heat as low as possible, add the beef cheeks, then cover and cook for 3-4 hours, or until the cheeks are beginning to fall apart. Serve the checks and their sauce on a warm plate with celeriac mash on the side.
