2 tablespoons flour, seasoned with salt and pepper

1.5kg topside or rolled brisket

500g new potatoes

Method
Preheat the oven to 150°C. Rub the flour into the beef. Heat the oil in a frying pan and brown the meat well on all sides. Add the remaining ingredients, except the sour cream, mix well and baste the meat with this sauce. Place in a casserole, cover tightly and bake for 1 hour.
