- 2 celery sticks, cut into large chunks
- 1 leek, cleaned and cut into large chunks
- 2 bay leaves
- 10 black peppercorns
- 6 cloves garlic, crushed

METHOD
- Prepare the Beef:
- Rinse the cured beef under cold running water to remove any excess salt from the surface.
- Cook the Beef:
- Place the beef in a large pot. Add the onions, carrots, celery, leek, bay leaves, peppercorns, and garlic.
- Cover the beef and vegetables with cold water, ensuring the beef is fully submerged.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer gently for 2-3 hours, or until the beef is tender and easily pierced with a fork. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during cooking.
- Rest and Slice:
- Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the pot and let it rest on a cutting board for 20-30 minutes.
- Slice the beef against the grain into thin slices for serving.
