Cut the meat into 3 cm dice and fry until they start turning brown, then add the red wine and some of the stock. Add the bay leaves and cloves, and leave to simmer for 1 hour.

Cut the vegetables into 0.5 cm slices/cubes. Fry the onion in a frying pan and add sequentially the sliced garlic, carrots, celery, leek, mushrooms and paprika. When soft, add to the meat.

Add the sliced apple, paprika, tomatoes, and tomato puree, then add beef stock until covered.

Add the gingerbread, herbs, and spices, then leave to simmer for at least 2,5 hours. Stir carefully and check the bottom every half hour, and bring to taste with salt and black pepper.

Top with parsley before serving, and serve with potato mash and homemade apple sauce.

For a vegan/gluten-free alternative, you can replace: the meat with 600 gram Seitan/Beetroot, the Gingerbread with 1 ts cookie spices and 15 gram Arrowroot (mixed in 10cl of cold water before adding), the beef stock with vegetable stock.
